    [i]Hello Friends,

    Let me show you my "Work in Progress" at the quarterscale.
    It's the Sherman M4A1 with T1E3 Mine Roller.

    The excellent build have done by a very good friends of mine Eric Azpiroz , a "specialist" pf the Sherman tanks.
    He's built is great, it's a mix of Tamiya's kit, Verlinden,Gaso.line, PE from Hauler:

    Finished : Sherman M4A1 with T1E3 Mine Roller (1/48th) 5-2

    So,i've started with the paintjob :

    - Start with grey primer from Tamiya

    - OD Base coat :

    - OD Highlight ( with a little bit of modulation ) :
    Finished : Sherman M4A1 with T1E3 Mine Roller (1/48th) IMG_6224

    - White stars are from Archer fine transfer:
    Finished : Sherman M4A1 with T1E3 Mine Roller (1/48th) IMG_6225

    So, it's just what i've done at this time, no filters,washes and other.

    I would like to made a very used and dusty model, in particulary for the T1E3 mine ROller System.

    I hope you like this, any comments are welcome, good or bad.
    And of course, if you can give some very good council for the weathering of the T1E3 system, it will be a pleasure.

    All the very best and take care,
    David[i]

    Hello friends,

    So, my Sherman is totaly completed!
    i've taken the choice to represent that model as very used and dusty Sherman..but i've try to be " not too much" lol!

    All the Dust effect are only doing with oil paints..no pigments were used.

    Excuse me for my paint skill onto the figures painting...i'm work to progress for the figures painting but it's very hard.

    The little scene represents that Sherman near Nancy ( France, Meurthe-et-Moselle ) just after the Moselle river crossing in 1944. ( i'm from Metz, in Lorraine )

    That's fantastic and does not look 1/48. Love the dust effects. I think your figures look good for this scale. I'm painting a couple right now and it all depends on the sculpted details.

    What did you use for the grass field?
