So I've been doing some practice off-camera... (Patreon)

I was just trying to come up with the easiest shell impact technique I could think of for the new video and might just accidentally found my new favorite approach lol. In the past I've been working with soldering iron and epoxy putty, but I really enjoyed this quick practice piece. All you need is to drill out a shallow hole, fill it with putty, give it about a minute to dry and then push it out with a blunt smooth object... done... brb, gonna do some filming on that turret in the background.
Also, as you can see, I've been doing more experiments with zimmerit made from regular Tamiya Putty. It's... meh... but I love the gritty texture it creates... that texture looks totally like the real thing scaled down 35 times. Too bad everything else sucks lol.
