mmmm, apple pie! My Mom's secret recipe: slice the apples very, very thin, and use a lot of brown sugar (and microwave the apples first, softens em up!)

That sounds great!  I will have to pass that on for the next batch....let you know how they turn out!



Cheers!

Just right weathering..and very nice background, it looks like a professional photo!

[LE BOSCO]

thanks rokket

for the background,it is a simple paper of color !the black paper of the begin of the post , is not the good choice for the Photographed model! I prefer the blue and the green papper, that returns better colors and nuances!
Photos of my "tins" (chock) in fake wood ,for my dioramas of the  Seehund and VIIC/41
the second stage , a "washing"of dark brown



After drying, a dry brush with a Light brown Is made. The every metallic parts are painted whith a mat black one has one!!!



the final result




He still many to make

Nicolas- i would add the light grey to the grain of the wood. I think that sort of slippers were made of aged wood.
Also the coat of matte could bring the parts to more realistic finish.

Hello Nicolas!  I do not have much help in the way of the torpedo tip color, but wanted to tell you your project is coming along great.  Great bit of weathering....just the right amount.  Looking forward to the next update.

Cheers!

Hello Nicolas, your project turns out very nice. The painting job looks very good so far.
With the Torpedo.... I tought the Torpedo head is bronze  But then I read here, I belive it was Dougie, the different Torpedo types had different colors and I think that would made since. Simon made a drawing with the differnt colours for each type... my tip would be, check what type of torpedo  it is and than use Simons painting

[LE BOSCO]

Hi gents

thank you for your coments!
For the color of heads I was obliged to choose!!!As I do not arrive has to visualize the drawings of Simon , and by looking of photos in black and white, the heads seem to be painted in a dark tint(blue grey?)but before ,for the "scenario" of my diorama , I do not install the detonators . On a torpedo, i am going to put a cover wood ,and on the other one ,i make the well of the detonator


I thus painted heads in blue grey,And the steel bodies,below in the photo, the paint of torpedo is not polished

One torpedoes installed in a temporary way


He stays the contrarotating propellers to paint in brass

Nicolas
