winter white wash, this is the start of some crazy paint scheme i had in mind, dirty, chipped, rough, see how it turns out?, regards simon.

Simon, that's already looking outstanding as you work your magic. There's a very good AK Interactive DVD on winter schemes with some off the wall ideas. Not much use to me with a tropical Centurion but one day...... Following with interest as ever. Thanks for posting. See you at TankFest? Stephen

some small progression on the paint, thanks stephen for the encuoragement, regards simon

Hi Simon.

Looking VERY smart as usual mate.
Cheers Paul.

excellent details and weathering mate,

some pictures of the build progress, i am looking forward to painting this vehicle with the variation in colors and zim detail, regards simon manning.

Fantastic paint job as usual Simon. It looks perfectly real in all respects. Best regards,
Bob

thanks robert for the encouragement, it's a job to know what to post, having most of these stages covered in other builds, regards simon.

Simon, for your builds it's all good to see. I'm sure I speak for many that I love to see something of your painting and weathering techniques. We've talked together a lot about how much can be adopted from what people do in 1/35th and there is so much to learn. You've got a lot further than most. Keep it coming. Stephen

By the way, Simon, if it's of interest, the caption in Russian on the colour scheme pic reads: "3rd company, 101 Heavy Tank Battalion, SS. Ardennes, December 1944".

Regards. Stephen
