Wanting to depict an abandoned Finnish tank, Chris put Tamiya’s 1/35 scale BT-42 on groundwork made from insulation foam covered with Celluclay, kitty litter, and clumps of scenic grass. He airbrushed Tamiya acrylics over Silly Putty masks for the three-color camouflage, and weathered it with artist oils, Ammo of Mig Jimenez washes, and artist pigments.
