I've found this "Chrome Polishing Powder" and wanted to give it a try. I was not sure what I expected but my expectation...

Next addition to the Red Alert 2 project - the Tesla Trooper. A fun and rewarding build with the emphasis on getting the metallic look right. The parts were pre-colored but almost each one was altered in some way with paints and washes to get a somewhat realistic, used and less "plastiky" look.

A superb kit, built exquisitely.
You're an artist Alexander

Thx at all!

@Matti: you described exactly what I was going for
@venser: It was applied with an airbrush using a splatter template, something akin to this one: Spatter Airbrush Stencil (Ma..(Alexen Model FG-AJ0059, No)
@Bernhard: getting maximum out of kits is your domain my dear Bernhard, in fact this was 98% out of the box. Okay, let's be generous...97%
@BAT21: I doubt I'll ever stray off the beaten path into model railroading, let alone in Scale O. However I want to get hold of some rails in that scale and present it properly next to the diesel locomotive from Aoshima that I want to build too. Even considering building another EF66, a modernized version in a different livery

Both 😉
RA2 brought the material upgrades when levelling up during the game, if I remember correctly.
So basic version is the v1, and evolved is the v2.
I don't recall a v3, but it's 25 yrs away lol.

Between the two kits, sprues are common for tracks and hull
Different turrets, mine plow, and a sound system on the v2 like the one included in the Grizzly. and the first one with a figure, too.

Just received the Tesla Tank, unboxing soon on my channel, btw.

By the looks of it, the V1 version looks like a "Realistic" interpretation of what an Apocalypse tank would look like, the turret being based on the T-90M's for example. While the V2 version looks closer to what the Apocalypse looked like in RA2, specifically the CGI cinematics.

Fantastic work on the not so wonderous wooden wonder! I agree on the cleverness with you painting aid contraption. It gives me some ideas on one of my ongoing builds how to think as the next step is to paint some paint splotches. I'll see what I can come up with. At least my MiG-21 is a smaller kit to work with. But to get the paint work as neat as yours will be quite demanding...

Alexander Grivonev Author
Thx a lot mates! The one and only advice I can give for the paintjob is: practice. Try different paints, thinner ratios, different airbrushes, different air pressures, find something that works for you

Thx Peter! The rear axle does not bother me too much. The painting process including the seats is conveniently described in the album, you are invited to take a closer look 😉 The cream color is a mix of XF-59 and X-2 in a 1:10 ratio

cheers!

AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL WORK… CUTTER PLOTTER COULD BE A" LOKLIK"? ALEX, WHAT VACUM FORMER ARE YOU USING?
 20 July, 00:33
Alexander Grivonev Author
Hey John, thx. Yoes a cutter plotter has been on my "I might consider that" list for several years now. Maybe it is time to put it on my shopping list...

I do not own a vacuum machine, if you are refering to my "vacuformed" windshields for the 964 models, I made a resin cast of the kit part and pulled heated clear sheet over it. I guess "deep drawing" is the correct technical term for that?
