So...for the first time since Christmas when I got it as a gift, and back 2 months ago when Randy figured out how to fix the hose....I used the airbrush. Just to base coat my Churchill platoon...but it is a thing of beauty. I know, I know, pictures or it didn't happen. But I will wait until the churchills are done with a first coat of good ole Russian Uniform for their beach run before I post the photos.

Well, even though DDay is a week or two away....I couldn't resist using the airbrush as it was intended....and did up the 3 part camo on the tigers. I can't believe how good it looks...and I don't think I did a particularly careful job. They aren't done...but come next battle of the bulge I'll be ready to go. Churchills got drilled and magnetized...their base coats are next, followed by some Russian Uniform. By the way I've painted so much British armor, I'm approaching my 2nd bottle's end. If anyone has some Russian uniform they are willing to part with, let me know, I'll give you a good trade! Tim always makes fun of me for the red towel I use so I dressed it up with some clump foliage...as If something that big could hide anywhere.

Awesome Tom. I especially like the scorched earth the tanks are sitting on.

I agree. The camo pattern looks great. Who knew it was that simple for such a superb look? ;D
