Armourfast Panzer IV F/G




I had a look at the tank park of assembled models for What a Tanker! this evening and decided that the Armourfast Panzer IV F that I had already started painting would be the focus for the weekend. The plan is to do a simple one to one tank duel to help the sprog learn the rules, before progressing to a larger number of tanks. He really wants to take the KV-1 for a spin, so I need a suitable early to mid-war tank as opposition.

It shouldn't take too long to get the Mark IV up to scratch, as I've already done the basic winter camo and added an overall wash. I  may even have a go at 'reverse painting' the sand basecoat on this one, just to see how it turns out. I'm looking forward to a bit of larger scale painting too, after all of the tiddly naval things I've been doing over the last few weeks (I'll be finishing off some of those too, if I can squeeze them in?)
