Ha ha, just the next immediate step would do not all the steps. I think the best advice I need is what sites do you visit for model armor tips?

Kakita nako usa and murag simple ra but I need to buy some colored pencils. Mag ask sa ko kung naa ako anak

Tech Tips: Weathering AFVs - Step by Step

ah, ok.
1. try to align the wheels. especially the last 2 wheels on the port side of your brummbar;
2. paint the rubber of the wheels with dark grey (black would be too stark for that scale);
3. detach the tracks (caterpillars) and paint it with rust color;
4. detail paint the pioneer tools accordingly (check the instruction booklet as guide) and install them carefully;
after the 4-steps, you can proceed with weathering. i'll tell you about it as soon as you finish the entire model.

I only had time to basecoat the top of the hat, trousers, and boots. Tomorrow or Wednesday depending on my schedule, I would paint the medals and jacket.

@teoding: Where can I buy foam boards?

salamat sa mga likes.

@teoding: Where can I buy foam boards?

naa sa national bookstore. buy the one with single sided cardboard topping. do not buy the double sided kay di ka maka carve.

[bittel]

@ teoding, gamit kaayo ang d7000 sa model da

anyway just wanna share
these are some of my old junks, after few years of doing scale modeling.i stop for couple of years. found this junk and wanted to make use out of what i have, no more manuals. just my old tools to do the job, i hope hope to piece this as one again.sadly i threw away most of my models, some were already hard to find these days.

[cmontoya]

@teoding: Salamat again

@bittel: I can now see the future of my own kits T_T I don't live in a big house and space is limited. One of the reasons why I'm hesitant to invest in 1/35 scale armor or even the larger WH40K armor. May I suggest donating your kits to JB next every Christmas? I know they won't last long at the hands of children but at least they'll get a taste of good toys, he he.

This would be my next project after the Brummbar. It would be competing for my attention though as I juggle between military vehicle kits, Gunpla, and miniatures. Hay makabuang ning mga bisyoha.
