Steven Van DyckNow it is primered in Humbrol Tank Grey to prepare for the hairspray technique.

Steven Van DyckAfter the hairspray I painted the Crab in Tamiya Olive Drab and black for the flail cylinder.

Steven Van DyckNow the shadows and highlights are done, with stress on the light tones to show off chipping later on.

Steven Van DyckInsignia for a generic tank have been sprayed on, so you won't find this tank on any reference pictures.

Steven Van DyckA good start gets you underway, Holger. If I compare to builds of other brands, I see the differences. I just did some chipping on the hull.

Steven Van DyckThanks, Holger. I just constructed a nice CMK figure to go in the turret. The original one wasn't so smooth.

Steven Van DyckThe mantlet dust cover is sprayed Flat Earth. I tweaked the insignia a bit.

Steven Van DyckI made a base that will be shaped like a cobblestone road that is partly submerged with Vallejo Still Water.

Steven Van DyckMy brand new phelsuma witnesses the creation of a bomb crater in my cobblestone road. Plaster is applied thinly on the surface.

Steven Van DyckI have to continue this if I want to have something to show at BSMC. Therefore I have started painting and drybrushing.

Steven Van DyckI now started to weather the tank. I used The Filter for green tanks and the AK wash for NATO 3-tone. I also printed some leaflets to scatter on the road.

Steven Van DyckThe base for the diorama is now worked out and the tracks and spare chains are fixed to the tank. Without the rotor it looks a bit like the mantis I bought last weekend.

Steven Van DyckI finished the Crab on friday. A few hours later it entered the contest at BSMC, but today it proved unlucky. Next time better, that will probably be at KMK. I adorned the wooden base with pictures of the Overloon War Museum example. I also put a dusty spray over the front of the tank, which I would find normal for the amount of soil it throws up. It probably cost me some points compared to all those colorful camos on the table, so be it.

Brian EberleGreat job! One of my favorite themes - Hobart funnies and all similiar Specialty Combat Vehicles.

Steven Van DyckThanks, Brian. Maybe I will do some more, but some very small scale. USA Landing Vehicle Set (AFV Club SE73516, 1:350)
