Really looking forward to this project. Those photos from the Pripyat vehicle graveyards are very eerie. Great weathering subjects.
Best wishes,
Ian

Nice to have you fellads on board! Primer2/Base coat- Vallejo hull red. Followed up with black for some pre-shading. Once dry will seal this with matt varnish before adding the first (of many) "proper" colour. I've decided this will be a PAtype of wreck rather than something from the graveyard as such... More flexibility

Paul that shouldn't be a problem  . It may even give you an advantage if you're going to use hairspray before the next colour

Hi Paul, its anyone of those weird n wonderful styles from the alternate universe that is the dwhat if...Kreig '46. World. Tends mostly to be German and based on "evolutions" of the late war ambush schemes. Also often very sharply defined and angular-kind of like modern Nordic schemes.

Back home and back to the bench I.e dining table. Life color Tenscrom Rust 1 airbrushed all over and once dried followed up with a couple of rust tones applied by and worked around with sponge. To be sealed with varnish (Matt this time) before next phase.
