Painting the panzer 111

[David Gray]

Started painting with a base coat of tamiya xf63 , then some pre shading with a mixture
of xf63 and matt black mixed 50 50
then following the design went over the base coat with dark green squiggles, and the on top
of that the camp pattern in tamiya xf60
I fitted all the side skirts for future reference but I don't intend to leave them all
fitted ,just while I paint the mm
Next I intend to use the mig filters to enhance the colours and create a base for oils and
washes and chipping

[David Gray]

Started the weathering with filters oil paints and washes , I am quit pleased with the results so far , as a tank on the Russian front 1943

Hello David,

this is a big WOW. I like it very much and on my opinion the right
touch of bumps, rust and scratches, not too much but enough.

David,
The details really "pop" on your PZIII. I really like the shurtzen. They make your model one of a kind. The paint work and weathering are superb. Excellent job. Its ready to do battle with the T-34/76's!
Best regards,
Bob

I like it very very much.

[Iacopo Di Giampietro]

Really very very nice! It seems true, congratulations!
The only thing you might notice (but many do) is the presence of twin MG turret: To function flak outside, they used to take out the MG coaxial gun. So it was very hard to find both.
Cioa,
Iacopo

Thanks for your comments everybody, it is correct what you said Lacopo about the mg
So I have removed one from the mantle , it looks better I think .
Hopefully will get a motion and sound pack soon be nice to see it move
