Tamiya oooooooooold really old Sherman M4A3 105 mm Howitzer just for the fun of it.

Lot of stuff can be done to correct here and there, adding PE, changing wheels for AFV, and hull from Italeri, etc..but forget it, this is a build to have fun, so is going out of the box, except for the metal barrel of course.

Here was my start during the spare time in the week. The kit is done in a few hours. next day, after sanding the lines in the turret and make some texture on it using the Tamiya thin glue (melting the plastic surface and making texture using a brush with stiff bristles.) Primer was applied using a can from Walmart. Also the figure was base painted using vallejo colors.

The fun part begins, using black and white from tamiya, the step 1 of the black & white modulation. Step two of the Black & White modulation continues with detailing white parts using a brush with Vallejo white. Step 3 of the Black & White Modulation adding glazes of Black, pin washes to underlines lines, holes, etc. Step 4 of the black & white modulation. Added some chipping, scratches and darker glazes and pinwashes and a more dark weathering.

2 layers of faded olive drab using a mix of tamiya olive drab and dark yellow.
On a closer look you can see the details done in black & white showing between the layers. a filter using model master sand, then another filter using burnt umber. Last a wash using mig brown for dark green and a pin wash using PLW black night.

markings done using template from Lion Roar WWII US Vehicles Markings 1. First time using it and I must say I love the results.

Fading process using oils.

I used some blue oils for the shadows and some yellows for the highlights. I Blend the yellows and the blues separated from each other and here you can see the results.
