This model was kindly donated to me by my mate Robin. I had committed myself to a Monday night game of Chain of Command - under condition that I brought along a painted Panzer IV for the Ardennes campaign. This photo is the build, which was pretty easy despite the superglue being a bit crap.
Next I undercoated it with GW Zandri Dust spray. Avoiding the usual Middlestone colour spray from Army Painter as I think it's a bit too yellow for my taste.
I intended to paint an ambush camo design, so the next stage was to paint circular type blobs in Vallejo Cavalry Brown and German Camo Green. Making these overlap in some places.
Then I added the dots around the blob patterns again using German Camo Green. Then dotted the blobs themselves with GW Zandri Dust.
- I gave a heavy painting of GW Rhinox Hide across the tracks and the base of the armour. This was a quick and heavy brushing to cover all the tracks and wheels so I could avoid having to paint the tracks themselves in a black or grey metallic.
Next I did an ink wash all over the vehicle with GW Agrax Earthshade. Once dry I then did a quick dry brush across the tracks and wheels with Vallejo Light Mud. Gradually flicking the brush all over the vehicle with the same colour to create a worn look.
Finally I painted the MG's in black and then added the decals.
