Let the painting begin.

I was able to get a little painting done today. This is just the base coat. I gave the tank an overall coat of straight Tamiya Field Grey XF65, then sprayed JSDF Brown on the lower half of the tank. Finally I finished off with a light coat of Buff XF57. I'm basically copying Steve Zaloga's BT-7A paint job from his Barbarosa 1941 diorama. I'm following his article in Military Modelling Vol 35, No 13 like it was a recipe.
