Another converted Sherman

[kerick]

An article I read on the Berlin Brigade cammo said the pattern was +- 18 inch squares with some squares butting up to each other. 18 inches in 1/35th = darn near 1/2 inches RW. Now to find a roll of 1/2 inch tape. The lower part of the Bradley side armor is really close to 1/2 inch too. This will make things simpler.

A pattern like this http://media.wix.com/ugd/279ff1_4f5468b52e5943cabec26863f36e9808.pdf might look good around the exposed part of the basement wall of the house. Make the concrete blocks look like other than concrete blocks.
Of course I doubt SWMBO would approve.......

Of course I doubt SWMBO would approve.......

Just don't tell her what the pattern's origins are. 

I once painted our lounge in Japanese WWII Orange/Green bomber camouflage and the dining room in the USN's WWII 'two blues and white' scheme, the one where all three colours blend into each other. The then Mrs_PR19 (not the current version....) thought it was very trendy.

Excellent scheme. I`m an inch away from ordering one or two Chieftain's from Hobbylinc. $20 each so why not

Your secrets safe with me. And all the other folks on this site.

Hmmmm... Never built a Chieftain, maybe its time!

I need to build the automatic road wheel painting machine........

Sorry no pics. I just wanted to let folks know I am still working on this one. Painted the off white and gray a few days ago. I had to use rattle cans as I can't find my airbrush!!!!
I know its been quite a while since I last used it but gee whiz! Getting old and a bad case of CRS, Can't Remember Stuff!!

Had to resort to Pactra gloss grey spray can and then Krylon Ruddy Brown primer. This was like masking 10 canopies. Many touchups still needed but its much closer to being done!

Jeepers, I need my shades to look at those pics! 

Seriously awesome camo for sure.

That's the name on the can. I didn't know anyone "named" a primer! It does go on well, dries quickly and gives a nice satin finish.

Because of the shapes of the coloured panels it looks like its made from Lego.
I like it.

Between Christmas and tiny bits there is not much visible progress. This is just to let folks know I haven't abandoned it!

I've added a couple of BUSK detail like the antennas and armored windows.
