WW2 Historical M26 Pershing Pt 2

Here is the finale of the M26 Pershing.

Do not tell me why but I felt the need to work on my water slide technique which I think I got down.

I think WW2 models work better when you use real decals as opposed to paint,but Micro Sol and Set are a must.

A layer of gloss to hide the decal seams and the Dullcote to bring it back to a matte finish.

I used a 80/20 mix of Tamiya X-20 thinner and Tamiya Buff for a dusting of the lower chassis followed by a light dusting of Europe dust and Industrial Dirt
