Italeri Marder III Ausf. H

The hull is lacking transmission and driveshaft... I scratched that but missed to take a picture 🙁 

Primary paintjob with my new airbrush and Tamiya-paints 

Exhaust was painted with different shades of grey as a basis for weathering 

fmain flesh tone was red brown aplied by airbrush 

 

artisic oils and a wash where applied to enhance shadows and details 

it also serves as a base for dirt and mud 

 

I applied some dark grey to give the impression of further and deeper damage to the steel 

Ammos Rust deposits and Oils were applied onto the pre-chipped exhaust in multiple layers to achieve the rust-effect 

This way of painting rust is quite interesting compared to just painting them red-brown, but there is still room for improvement 🙂 

 

I am quite happpy with the figures, although i want to try a less intense color for the eyes next time 

I painted the black jacket with dark grey and the recesses and boots were painted with "real" black for variety and contrast 

Some splahes were added with Mud Effects
