AK Intercative 4BO green and Archer transfers, to break monotone green I'm going for partial winter camo.

Winter camo done and worn out, main focus is at the front of the vehicle. At rear there's just enough white to balance the look.




Next up some detail painting and chipping.

Small update. To break green/white I added some color, 200L german fuel drum on rear deck. This gives nice point of interest to the model.

Question; on right front corner there is part that looks like somekind of strap, what is it's purpose and is it leather?

Started weathering with oils, this is most time consuming step so next update might take some time.

JSU-122s in it's current state. I'm moving on to finish this one also, this will be cleaner than 122 and better shape in general too. For paint scheme I was thinking 4BO green base with yellow stripes, plain green is just too...plain

Hi Tomi,

I wasn't aware of this interesting project of yours so pardon my very late reply.
I too have a similar line up planned, although I 'only' have two Tamiya ISU-152 kits so far.

Very nice work and choice of sets used. I do have the 'old' ModelPoint 122mm barrel for the ISU-122 project, but that one appears to be very hard to find.
I bought Armo's ISU-122S conversion set for my build, but your set is a grey resin so I suspect from another firm? Interesting frontal armour work too, home made or from an aftermarket firm?

Great work so far, nice to see that you are using Archer's dry transfers

Hi Tomi,

Hi! Yep, this project seems to drag forever... Gun shield is mix of Armo conversion set and CyberHobby parts, barrel is Aber JS-2 part. Frontal armor is, if I remember correctly, Mr Modellbau welded front section. There's also Voyager etch used like fuel tanks and fenders.

It's very likely that I won't be building JSU-152 so this is just double build then, I do have SU-152 from Bronco but that will be separate build when time comes.
