Voroshilovets Artillery tractor – Part 13: Touch ups
So the last step in this build was to add bit more mud to the running gear and wheels. Previously I have used only small number of pigments, I have added more […]
Pz.IV Ausf.H – Part 7: Tracks

Voroshilovets Artillery tractor – Part 11: Tracks
Yesterday I picked this model again, intent on getting it to the finish line in hopefully near future. I have finished the tracks, which were painted in the mix of black/brown base […]
