Bloody fantastic !  You really got the air brush mastered by the looks of the camo on the Flamm . The only thing that pops out as "wrong " is the white interior  in the Hezter hull , should be Panzer yellow ( base vehicle color ) , but that would hide the interior detail in a kit this small and cramped , so its a no win situation

Love the colours, are you modulating?
Title: Re: scouts and more
Post by: Maxim on January 11, 2020, 09:35:57 pm
yes, i try modulation. Not everything works out, but I don't give up :).

I wouldn't say its a mistake . In real life , the interior of hatches or inside of vehicles (SPGs , halftracks ) that was visible from the air was painted base vehicle color . Not much sense having all that cammo paint job and piles of branches covering your vehicle , only to have white circles or squares visible to any prowling enemy aircraft , that would ruin your day . Although you can find pictures where the interior of the hatch is lighter than the exterior , It's  hard to tell in WW2 era  photo if its white or just not as weathered / dirty as the outside . Personally in this scale I paint my hatch interiors a lighter color  so the crew figures will stand out . If your interior was panzer yellow it would be hard to see anything of the interior unless you picked up the model to take a closer look , the white allows us to view some details even in these photos you posted

Looked like modulation. My friend is into it and your's and his models have that similar look i recognized. He how ever only does the base dunkelgeb colour with no patterns/camo. Have yo also modulated the camo colours?

Cool . I take it your adding the Panther body to the Rubicon hull ? Or is there some other diabolical plan in the works here ? lol

That looks awesome . FYI , wire cutters handles are sort of  a orange color . They are metal centers wrapped in multi layers  of resin soaked paper , making them non conductive , bulb  ends are of same material
