German Panther D Platoon

These German Panther's were painted in a solid Dunkelgelb scheme using Vallejo's "Middlestone".  The primer coat is Vallejo's Black Acrylic Urethane primer; this was the first time I've used this new product and I think it performed wonderfully!  I've got a big bottle of both Black and Grey and I think I've settled on a primer of choice :)  They do sell White but I've not tried it.

The mufflers are painted in layers using Vallejo's Panzer Aces rust colors (dark, starndard, yellow).  Overall I think the effect was just what I wanted, contrasting yet weathered and somewhat realistic.

German Grey Panzer IV F1 Platoon

For the past few years I've been devoted to painting 1/285th miniatures made by GHQ; however for a number of reasons I decided to move back to 15mm.  I miss the quality and the precision of GHQ but I sure had a lot of fun painting these...  I don't know that I'll ever return to painting 1/285th.

For these Panzer IV's I used my airbrush to create a work and faded look, by spraying lighter shades on top of the darker base coats.  I used Vallejo "German Grey" for the base coat and just added white.
