Preparation and Cleaning: Wash the model parts to remove any mold-release agents. Trim and sand rough edges to ensure smooth assembly.
Precision Cutting: Use a sharp hobby knife to carefully remove parts from the sprues, ensuring clean cuts to avoid damage.
Seam Filling: Use putty or filler to smooth over gaps between parts for a seamless finish.
Painting and Weathering: Layering base coats, highlights, and applying techniques like dry brushing or weathering powders simulate rust, dirt, and realistic wear on the tank’s surface.
Decal Application: Use softening solutions to help decals adhere smoothly to uneven surfaces.
