T(h)ank you …
As promised, after the camo netting dried, the tanks got their primer. I was asked, how did you do the camo netting? I used some old gauze bandages and tissue paper (the center area of the tissue without the structure). You simply cut it into the right size, dip it into a mixture of pva and water, wipe off excessive amounts of the pva-water-mixture and bring it into position. As the material soaks full with the mixture and later on dries nearly rock hard, it can be used for gaming purposes without any problems.
Tanks and Airbrush
After cleaning the resin tanks from the release agent with a warm soap bath and an old toothbrush, they were ready to get painted.
First time the tamiya painting stand got used, and i find it pretty usefull. All of the tanks got a solid black primer from the army painter cans. And afterwards a zenital lighting / white dusting.
Tinnelton Pattern Chimera
One or the other of you may have already read the review. I reviewed the Tinnelton Tank Turret from Anarchy Models and i am pretty amazed by the kit.
So inspired by the kit, i got myself a chimera kit and converted it. Primary i shortened the upper part and moved the turret location back.
Warhammer 40,000 – Baneblade and Shadowsword
For Apocalypse, Games Workshop has given the Imperial Army two super-heavy tank kits. The first was the Baneblade. Games Workshop then released a second tank based upon the Baneblade chassis, the Shadowsword / Stormlord boxed set.
Since both kits have been on the market for some time, here is a double build report instead of a review.
