models and teaching my young son how to make them. Maybe I
should sooner than later.Einzelganger7: Thanks, even if I am just starting I can already say it is with no
doubt an awesome hobby so I hope your son can apreciate it as well
when you teach him in the future.

black base coat i add some white in the middle of hatches and
panels, makes the paint a bit different in certain areas. Here's
some pics showing the highlights and some weathering


Also
what paint did you use?Einzelganger7: Also what paint did you use? Oh, sorry for the delay. Indeed,
I've seen some modelers that make such a thing after the black coat
but I was not aware they would impact that much on the final look,
it is something that will be done for sure on my next model because
it looks good, like slight shadowing effects. As for the paint, I
received help from a relative who works at painting cars so they
were self made tones so no idea about the paint codes, though what
I know is that they are acrylics. In fact I still have some of the
spare paint he made.

Society). www.amps-armor.org . Also, on YouTube there is a channel
called Night Shift. He does some great tutorials to advance your
skills...That is just the very tip of the ice berg. There are a lot
of great resources out there for scale model building.Einzelganger7:
Awesome! That is exactly what I wanted to find. While I was making this Tiger II I tried to follow the building/effect techniques used by the channel Andy's Hobby Headquarters, he does nice models with simple process but sadly he doesn't make tutorials so he just explains from time to time how to make speciffic effects but not on detail. So these recomendations you brought to me will help me a lot, thank you so much.
