Hi people! Here another Great War weird thing. This time, the Saint Chamond heavy tank:   I started it "by the manual", as I think 80 to 90% of the parts are in the suspension. Hope you like:    The paint will be the great challenge, as I'll need use, at least, 5 colors. Will be fun!  ACC&?W  |

Thank you so much guys! Ok, I finished the complex suspension. Lots of little parts and it's a shame that most of the build won't can be seen after the model is done:     So, that is time to prepare to close the hull. To can do that, I first needed to build the main gun:   After that, I'll build the four machine guns and them I'll can close the beast, add the hull details and let it ready for start the paint. It realy looks weird:  And here you can see the main problem of this tank: They used a "civil" tractor suspension and tracks and the lenght of the hull created a lot of problems during trench cross attempts. Not a good tank, just a funny vehicle. Hope you liked so far. ACC&?W |

Hi OSM! I finished the build and applied some Mig One Shot grey primer on that. Before the primerage result, I'd like to show the pics of the beast without primer and the fantastic work that HB did to represent the Chamond badge in PE...    Now, the primer and the colors that I'll use to (try to) paint the camo scheme. Hope you like!   Time to start the nightmare paint work! ACC&?W |
