Default RE: Sherman Firefly 1C Build thread

I got rid of the plastic headlight guards and made my own. I put one wash of weathering and started on the paint chips. Started throwing some stowage on it just to see what it will start to look like.

I took a close up of the back deck to show some paint chips and also to demonstrate the effect the stowage has on the paint as it polishes off the paint down to the bare metal. This effect was also use done on the turret where the guys would be sliding down and clambering up.

Also highlighted is the glancing damage of am incoming 75 mm round.

All the texture on this model was created using a thin coating of Autobody glazing. All the cast areas got a thin coat
