Proud Kraut Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share #29 Posted January 3, 2018 After the washing has dried completely I paintbrushed the M31 with Vallejo U.S. dark green = "highlighting". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogsbody Posted January 5, 2018 Share #35 Posted January 5, 2018 Hello Lars, that looks great! The cables on the crane look absolutely fine. Great job (and nice kit so it seems). Rene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud Kraut Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share #36 Posted January 6, 2018 Thanks guys! Since the M31 is nearly finished now, it's time to start with the vignette. During the last years I visited Dresden several times. One of the most impressive cities in Germany IMHO. When doing some history research I came across this pictures some time ago. It's showing the destroyed Luther statue in front of the destroyed Frauenkirche after the devastating bomb raid on February, 13th 1945. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proud Kraut Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share #38 Posted January 6, 2018 So here the story goes.
