Re: Heller 1/35 Somua S35
Ok, I’m getting back on this one to get it over the finish line.
Flat coat on. I used Tamiya XF-86 Flat Clear for the first time, thinned with lacquer thinner. I like the results.
Next up dry brushing, then weathering.

Thanks Bruce. I’m very happy with the results. Especially for a first time usage.

I didn't know Tamiya had a flat clear in a jar. It looks like it came out really well.

Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Yes, it’s one of their more recent releases in the expanded line. I mixed at a ratio of 2 parts paint to 3 parts thinner for this session.

Thanks Joe. I’m happy to be back at the bench again. And yes, based off of my first use, I do recommend this flat coat.

Wonderful work on that Carlos, it looks superb. It's great to see a French tank being built for a change!

Thanks. This is a nice change of subject area. French vehicle’s do have some great camo schemes.
