RE: Tamiya Leopard 2A6
Thank you all for your compliments. There are some great modelers on this site and it sets a high bar for me.
Panther G, I did use the Tamiya acrylics XF-67,68 and 69. I also used the Testors Model Master enamels, but only on a few pieces, like the 1795 Gunmetal and FS37038 flat black on the MG3. If my overall camo colors on the model look odd, it’s because I airbrushed dry at the trigger to achieve an ultra flat. It sounds crazy, and it is not the most durable topcoat. Another modeler, who I admire very much, posted about not using the Testors Dullcoat. It’s a matte semi gloss finish. I only used it to seal the big crosses on the turret before I stopped. My topcoat is a shortcut to the hardcore accepted weathered model finish, but I’m happy.
