Current progress on my Karl... Both carriers received their pinwash of black oilpaint... Ready for a lighter mist of either grey or blue grey...

I really do feel flattered when you say that I have my own style

Oh, and the Mortar has been started too. I am waiting for the Friuls to be delivered so I can finish the lower half. The upper half has also been started...

Anyhoo, over to the pictures....
This is a pic of the original:


The first carrier is ready to receive it's base color:

Today I added the first layer of weathering by applying a pin wash of black oils to one of the carriers...


The difference really shows... But lots of work to be done yet...
