Hakan and I have found an interesting camouflage. We're doing the tank in the picture above. White spots ..

I used to paint tamiya JGSDF paint sets.. XF-72 JGSDF brown for base and XF-73 JGSDF dark green for camouflage..

How do make the white spot ?
First try, I wanted to use ready-made templates. Outer parts of the circle ..Like this..

However, this method is long and laborious, I gave up ..

When I examined the reference photo, I saw a simple sablon was created for this job.

Let's do it...

and the result . I think very nice pattern..

I used "parafilm" for canvas.. Parafilm is a transparent layer . I painted it with white ..  (What is parafilm : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parafilm)

test paint :)

I painted the tires on the wheels. A difficult process after mounting

 I made the number 31 at the top of the tank with the old decals..

Tow-cable from "Eureka XXL" company..

Some weathering..

And figures .. There are two figures in the box .. They need winter clothes
