I needed to change the 'tone ' of the paint a bit .This vehicle is going on a small dio which will be set in a cold,dark ,dirty and wet winter day ...thats the plan ???
So I had to tone down the Yellow and white ,and give a bit of a greyish appearance in keeping with the scene .
To do this I took MIG's Dark wash and thinned it by about 50% so it was a very thin wash .The Marder got another coat of clear ,then the wash was applied all over .
Once dry I took a brush dampened with thinners and removed a lot of the wash ,this left a very thin film ,just enough to cool down the colours . I still need to remove a few more bits ,but you can see where its going ....hopefully !!
hmm i think i spoke too soon... looks good chris. ive run into a bit of a snag on the rear of my kit. More warped bits that dont seem to wana stay put ill post a pic in my build
