Building the Proxie Models Trencher Mk II: Tracks
So, here's a quick post on the method and colors I've come up with for tank tracks. It's an easy method, and I like the way it looks.
First, I paint the tracks with Vallejo Panzer Series German Camo Black Brown. I think its also called something like "SS Camo Black Brown" in the regular Vallejo Model Color line. Same color.
Next is a wash with the Army Painter Dark Shade, I use it undiluted and cover the tracks completely.
The final two steps involve heavy drybrushing of two Ceramcoat craft paint colors:
The final detail painting and weathering is done on my platoon of three Trenchers. I will take some pics and try to get them up here this weekend.

Building the Proxie Models Trencher Mk II: Painting Step-by-Step
With assembly finished on my three Trenchers, the next step was painting. I envision these tanks as a sort of sci-fi T-34, so I will be painting them in a Soviet armor green scheme.
