The workbench (Inside the cave)
Posto alcune foto del mio piccolo laboratorio dove mi rifugio a costruire e dipingere i miei modelli e i figurini per rilassarmi un pò.

Sherman tank crew
Ho finito uno dei due carristi Americani che posizionerò sullo Sherman.Come descritto su un precedente post si tratta di un figurino mezzo busto realizzato dalla Warrior.Per la giacca e i pantaloni con la pettorina ho usato Humbrol 168 poi schiarito con la tecnica del dry brush aggiungendo al colore il bianco opaco e in seguito ho eseguito un leggero lavaggio con Terra D'Ombra Naturale ad olio per smorzare l'effetto dry brush.Per il colletto e i polsini della giacca ho usato Humbrol 179 mentre per la cintura Humbrol 158.Per l'elmetto il colore di base è Humbrol 86 e quello per creare le luci sulla parte superiore Humbrol 226.Durante le varie fasi della colorazione ho sempre usato il metodo per smorzare l'effetto del dry brush con i lavaggi ad olio.
I finished one of the two American tank crew that will place on Sherman.As described in a previous post it is a half bust realized by Warrior.For the jacket and tanker trousers I used Humbrol 168 then highlighted using the dry brush technique with the addition of matt white and then I run a light wash with raw umber oil to attenuate the dry brush effect.For the collar and the cuffs of the jacket I used Humbrol 179 while for the belt Humbrol 158.For the helmet the base color is Humbrol 86 and that to create the lights on the top Humbrol 226.During the various stages of painting I've always used the method to attenuate the dry brush effect with oil washes.

Jagdpanzer IV L 70 (A) on the workbench 2
Nuovi progressi nel montaggio e dettaglio dello Jagdpanzer IV L 70.Come si vede dalle foto fino ad ora la maggior parte del lavoro si è svolto sulla parte posteriore del mezzo.Altri interventi significativi sono stati l'asportazione e la sostituzione di vari dettagli stampati direttamente sulle superfici della parte superiore della sovrastruttura del carro come i piccoli ganci sui quattro lati e gli attrezzi nella parte posteriore.Inoltre ho aggiunto una piastra aggiuntiva nella parte anteriore dello scafo.Il tutto è stato realizzato con plasticard e filo di rame.Ho sostituito la canna presente nel vecchio kit della Dragon con una in alluminio prodotta dalla Jordi Rubio.
New advances in the assembly and detail of the Jagdpanzer IV L 70.As you can see from the photos until now most of the work took place on the rear of the vehicle.Other significant interventions were the removal and replacement of various details printed on the surfaces of the upper part of the superstructure of the tank as the small hooks on all four sides and gear in the back.I also added an additional plate on the front of the hull.All changes were made with Evergreen plasticard and copper wire.I replaced the barrel present in the old Dragon kit with an aluminum produced by Jordi Rubio.
