British 8th Army Konflikt '47
Six Pounder Anti-tank Gun
The Six Pounder starts from the techniques/colors described in the Picking Paint Schemes post and it finished off with the following elements:
- A dry-brushing of black is applied to the end of the gun’s barrel.
- Brown Tamiya Panel Liner is used to darken and accent panel lines and around some of the rivets.
- The tires are painted with Tire Black (Secret Weapon) and highlighted with Rubber Highlight (Secret Weapon)
- The skin on the crew is Midlund Flesh (Formula P3) washed with Reikland Fleshshade (Citadel). I lazily didn’t paint the eyes, but the wash gives decent definition to the facial features.
- The shell is painted with black for the tip and Brass Balls (Formula P3) for the rest.
- The ammo cans are painted with the same paint scheme as the armor.
- Secret Weapon Pigments Dark Yellow is used on the tires and the ammo cans on the ground.
- Army Painter grass tufts are added as accents to the bases.
