A Tank Called Coleraine
Making tracks (well, painting them, anyway...)
Time is getting away from me on this project, so I’m having to cut back on some of the weathering plans; I’ve decided not to add any chipping or more paint effects as I plan to add a heavy layer off dust that most likely cover up the majority of any other weathering.
For a quick paint method for tracks, I like to do the following;
Base coat of Army Painter Fur Brown from a rattle can.
Wash with a mix of Vallejo acrylic washes, Sepia Brown and Black 60:40 mix thinned with a drop of water.
Dry-brush with Vallejo Oily Steel.
Base coat and wash at the back, dry brushed at the front.
The whole troop with tracks fitted
'Coleraine' with tracks fitted, starting to look like a tank now.Final steps will be detail painting; exhausts, tools, etc. Then adding a heavy layer of Tunisian dust.
