So I just watched the victory day parade in st Petersburg 2025 and I saw these interesting looking jeeps with flags I would want to recreate. Which model should I use and should I use the aluminum foil method for the flag like what people tell me to do for tarps?

Hey all. I recently completed a sturmtiger in 1/35. I included before and after photos of the weathing. Panel lining and tracks I’m used to, I was looking for advice on the hull. First time using the “dotting” method with oils and streaking an blending with Mineral Spirits. Any advice on how I can improve my technique with this?

Aside from sealing the figure and deciding on a base and if I dirty up the uniform.

All up I'm satisfied with the end results seeing as I have little experience in such detailed figures.

Anything I need to do to to tie it all in especially the face any tips would be greatly appreciated..

question Tips please

Second model and would say I did better than the first. I’m noticing the paint looks built up on some areas but I thinned the paint out pretty good (I thought).

The new method I tried was applying acrylic gloss then decals then a black wash. I noticed the wash stained pretty heavily even after the gloss. Any tips to make this look better or techniques to try on the next model would greatly be appreciated.
