Force of Arms FT-17
« on: November 01, 2008, 12:22:09 PM »
Hi!
This is the first vehicle I painted. It´s the Force of Arms FT-17. I had to paint it up, inspired by Helens FTs from Brigade.
I wanted a dirty campaign look for the tank. I´ll use it in SCW and RCW games.


The FT-17 covering Markovs Officer Regiment´s advance



The cross is an airmarking used by the nationalists in SCW. I think for RCW it looks like a Markov-Flag.

Very nice. May I suggest adding some more dark washes just around the moving hatches (front, turret top and rear, and engine cover)?

The dust on the running gear is very nicely done, and the death´s head suitably grim!
