75th Anniversary of Battle of Monte Cassino and Northern Italy (Army Build)
A Company of Churchills
I thought I would stick to the historical colour scheme and so I went olive drab. While the sand/black scheme looks good, I have a lot of other tanks (Shermans, Stuarts etc) already in an olive drab and doing the same here will just look better and tie in.
So I’ve now base coated everything olive drab, as you can see,
I’ve added the transfers as well. The NIH decal didn’t stand out too well against the green background so I’ve added one transfer and then applied a second over the top, which was a little fiddly. It does stand out a little better though.
I’ve also painted the detail such as the tools and skin. I’ve base coated the tracks in a burnt umber colour ready for dry brushing later in the process.
More great progress, @redvers – and GREAT job getting the decals to lay so well on that uneven engine deck. I had a helluva time doing this sort of thing on over the pistol ports on my early German armor. Great work!
