1/56 scale Hungarian AFVs
converted & painted
by
EmpireOfGhosts
Recently completed a full repaint of these 1/56 scale resin Zrinyi assault gun and Csaba armoured car from Mad Bob Miniatures. I had a lot of resin seepage on the bottom over the past few years and they really weren't up to my current painting standards. Once stripped, I removed the resin crew and re-did a lot of the detailing - especially rivets - using plasticard.
I opted to paint them in a monochrome Honved green using a 50/50 mix of Tamiya Park Green and Flat Green, with wear done using Vallejo Air Pale Green. These tones were then melded using an overall green oil filter and, once cured, weathering was done using dry-rendered oils and enamel washes. Decals are a mix of Mad Bob and Warlord games. The large balkenkreuz on the Zrinyi's skirts was done with an airbrush stencil.
Stowage is a mix of random bits I had laying around, with ropes made using embroidery floss pulled taut over them and held in place with CA glue. To add rigidity and tone down their glossiness, I applied a several coats of Tamiya Flat Clear with a brush.
