Another Airbrush Bought!

Bought myself another airbrush from H&S, the Evolution AL+. Been trying it out now for the past months and I must say that this is probably my favorite airbrush. The difference between the AL+ and the regular Evolution CR+ is that its made out of aluminium (black parts) so its much lighter.
For me the lightness is very nice when painting more detailed schemes as its lighter on the hand and I don't feel as much strain on the hand.

Recommended if you want an airbrush that's black and weighs less than the regular version !


Renault FT-17 (Cast Turret) Meng 1:35

Been working on Mengs Renault FT-17 with the cast turret. Superb kit with full interior so I decided to have all the hatches open. Building it out of the box with only some small alterations like replacing the springs that are way too thin.

It will be a Finnish FT-17 tank in french colors, they kept the french camouflage so I painted it with AK french color set. For this build I also tried out AK "True metal" colors and I must say that they are great, easy to apply with brush and polishes easily. Will soon start the weathering process but will keep it at a minimum as the tank will stand on a cobblestone base, on a parade with a small child figure standing beside it. The cobblestone and sewage cower are from Miniart
