Jagdpanzer IV/70(A)

This is my first attempt at airbrushing and weathering and actually finishing a plastic scale model. This is a cyber-hobby.com Jagdpanzer IV/70(A) tank. 




Paints used were Tamiya Acrylics for spraying and Humbrol Gloss and Matt Aerosol varnish which I was a tad unhappy with. The Matt tended to frost quite badly, but it does give an added weathering effect.



Overall I'm quite happy with my efforts even though it has taken nearly 5 months to get it to this stage. I'm sure that this will be the final product. I do have an amazing amount of parts left over though and think that it could be cyber-hobby.com being a tad lazy.


I did add this fellow from another Tamiya set, Military Miniatures - German Machine Gun Troops... and might even get around to doing a diorama of sorts. But until I have a bit more experience, I might leave that for a while.



My foray into the world of blog!

Well, today I bit the bullet and got this organised. I'm not that sure what to do with it yet except maybe show the world what I'm up to. My interests are many and varied and change depending on my mood. So, I hope that in time it will become  an interesting record of stuff I've done or yet to do. We shall see!
