Nice models. Lets us know how you paint them.
I'm attempting to paint a 28mm one at present.

Black Wash with Vallejo Wash
Then Base coat "sand" (tbc) and then highlight with a lighter sand

just made one of those Italian quick builds , awesome the way forward for tracks! they look ok as well ...next painting stage too
In complete agreement with you there Fraximus :)
