Esci 1/72 Flammpanzer III "passing through" (by Gürkan Özkan)



Hello everyone,

A classic Esci 1/72 scale model. Nice details, fine molds, lovely tracks. Just a bit hard to work on the tracks.
I tried a vignette about a panzer passing through a river. I used 100 coat varnisch. I tried to do the effect of shell hitting the water. (click please for technic :http://miniafv...how to make easy water effect)
Not a great job but I really enjoyed working on it.
Thanks...
Gürkan Özkan..














thank you for sharing Gürkan...
