Little Willie ~ Accurate Armour

Work revolving around Early Allied Armoured Vehicles
Tanks played a great role in World War II. Invented by the British in World War I, the tank gradually improved in the inter-war period and also saw rapid changes in the Second World War. At one point a tank seemed to be state-of-the-art, then a year later it was obsolete.

Okay now that the funeral for my Mother is passed and my life is getting back to "normal" I'm gonna git back into this one. I will take some snaps as to how it stands now and then I will start trying to get a nice display base for this to sit in. :Y) Rock on!

So here are some shots as promised as to where this is at this point. Now I plan on respraying some of the grey back into the body of the tank, specifically on the sides where there are stains from the thinner used to secure the pigments. Also you can see that I have bought a wood base for a little setting I'm going to try and do.

Looks pretty damn good. Those tide marks are such a pain in the ass sometimes. Great job.

Hi Jamie, this looks very nice! I reckon any model tank collection would be enhanced by one of these, the place where it all began. The painting and weathering are first rate!

Cheers

Thanks John. I appreciate that coming from someone who does as inspiring work as you!
I have been working on getting a base don. Stained it and use a water based clear coat to prepare the base.

Great looking vehicle. So is it going to be crawling through the mud?
