Battlefront models, built here as the twin-MG armed Vickers Mk. VI B. As usual of late, I've customised each model with stowage and bits to make each unique. Tedious, and it adds a lot of hours to each model, but it usually pays off in the end. This is only really possible when I have a few models to do.

Basecoat Portland Stone (or my version of it) before brush-painting the Caunter Scheme. 2-pounders and Dingos on the go as well. |

Missing some pics...jumped ahead here quite a bit: Caunter painted, decals applied and chipping done, mostly by brush. Why yes, I have lost my mind...why do you ask? |

I love those little tanks, great looking caunter! Do you cast your own stowage?
ReplyDeleteThanks: the yellow pieces are milliput, cast into molds made from blue stuff thermo plastic. Useful for making your own stowage molds, at least for simple pieces.
