M18 Hellcat in 1/35 by the fine folks at Academy.
I started this one with the intention of doing another OD weathering thread here. A couple of pre-weathering progress pictures were posted over in Ground Power to get the thing started. While I let the Sherman dry, :laugh: I thought another OD project would be in order.
I didn’t like the way that the dry-brush did a “halo” effect around the decals (when you dry-brush, you obviously don't want to cover the decals as you dry-brush), so I decided to apply the graphics after dry-brush. This may cause its own set of problems/workarounds, but discovery is ½ the fun. (Maybe?). We will see. Submitted for your perusal. Thanks for looking.
Cheers,
Bill
Ready for the wash.
First pass with the Raw Umber wash.
A couple of passes with successively lighter dry-brush.
