Hi again!!
I´ve split my tanks images in two post: american and soviet tanks, for better control and easy update in the future.

I wanna show you my Soviet Force: 2x Su-100, 1x IS-2 and a ISU-152.
Next month I´ll buy a T-34 and I´ll painted it soon.

Hope you like my winter camo pattern.

Cheers!!!

Very nice! The Winter Wash is fading, but it looks great. How did you go about creating this effect?

Thanks for the reply, BloodEyes!!

Yeah, I tried to emulate a "fading away winter camo scheme". I looked for different winter camo pattern images on internet, and I chose the ones that I liked a lot.

These camo patterns:

The main effect here is basically the same: An erased white camo in some areas that allow us to see the original green russian scheme painted below.

For emulated this effect, I used the "sponge technique" that I could watch in these tutorials:

This one, from minute 8:42...


And this one also



I use white spray primer. Then, I apply the green paint (Russian Uniform from Vallejo model color) wetting a piece of sponge on the green paint and giving small touches here and there throughout the tank´s chasis, adding more touches (more paint) in certain areas like corners to emulate a more fading/chipping effect.

I hope this is useful for you :)
Cheers and thanks for your comment!!

More Soviet reinforcements!

An IS-85, one T34/85 and finally a SU-85 (maybe I´m obsessed with the 85 mm cannons...)

Hi folks!!

Today I bring you some objective markers that I´ve made with the leftovers and extra pieces that includes these tank kits.
I added sand and glue it all on round bases.

They served as mission objectives or for point some areas of the map.

Hope you like them!!
