Christian BruerWell the paint is on. I first sprayed a full layer of German Gray, then several thinn layers of mid brown, lightened with sand and white. I use Vallejo acrylics. Next I will add a layer of Future before I start the wash and the highlights of the surface with oils.
Cheers Christian

Dave FlittonWhat are you going to do about the screen that sits atop the turret?

Martin OostromWhy do you always downscale from the 'regular' scales? Planes in 1/144 instead of 72 or 48. Roadstuff in 72 instead of 35 or 24. Is your display cabinet downsized as well? 😄
Troubling part is, your small scale stuff is just so much better then many regular stuff. #Legend 👍

Christian BruerThank you Lukasz and Martin🙂
Well Martin, you know I'm coming from 1/350 scale, so it's an upscale for me 😄
Cheers Christian

Alec KYeah Martin, don't you know?? Christian is upscale, UPSCALE I say...😉 😄 😄 🙂

Christian BruerHehe Alec, I guess you know what I mean in the context to modelmaking 😉

Martin OostromI can confirm he is UPTHERE on a pedestal with the best of us. A lot of guys are good, some are great, few are legendary. CB is one of the legendaries 👍

Christian BruerHey Martin, wow wow wow, to much praise IMHO. As I have seen lately at SMC in Veldhoven, there are much more talented modellers than me.
And I like it to look up to others creating wonderful models and dioramas with all their excellent ideas, skills and techniques.
Anyhow, I'm pleased that you like my work and share you impressions and that counts!
Cheers, Christian

Christian BruerWell, nearly one year ago I painted the tiny Sd.Kfz.222, so the paint should be dry enough now😄
I wanted to represent the peeling green brown Africa colour and the appearing basic gray colour. First I have added a oil colour wash with dark brown. Once dry I painted carefully all adges with Vallejo German Gray by hand brush. This procedure was done untill I was satisfied with the result. At last I start highlighting all upper surfaces with white Oil colour.
Some dust along ght chassies and wheels was done with pastel calks.
So I let it dry (hopefully not one year) and than the decals and some details.
Cheers, Christian

Christian BruerThank you Lode 🙂 Hope you and your family are well!?
To paint all the bits and pieces, including the Modern Armies in Miniatures palm tree, the Black Dog accessories and the D-Day Miniature Studio figures made a lot of fun. I use Vallejo acrylics to paint all the parts and tried to choose a wide variation of colours to get a good colour modulation when all the parts are coming together.
Happy Modelling
Christian

Christian BruerThank you Rui and Peter 🙂
Well Rui, I paint also figures for my ship models in scale 1/350 😄
Peter, I am progressing a 144 Rafale M and a small scratch build CV section as a display. I will post some photos later the week. Otherwise I have some ships in progress.
Cheers, Christian

Dirk HeyerHabe Dein sehr schönes Diorama heute auf Modelversium gesehen.

Du hast sehr schön die Lichteffekte in dem kleinen Maßstab umgesetzt und das ganze Diorama hat viel Tiefe und schöne Details. Auch die Figuren sind sehr gut bemalt. Bin wieder sehr beeindruckt von Deinem handwerklichen Fähigkeiten. Klasse gemacht.
