Are clans still a thing in current Warhamster? IIRC yellow was Bad Moon Clan. Pink I never heard of a clan.

GO PINK!

Clans are still a thing! Bad Moons are indeed yellow.

So tempted to do pink…

Then go pink. And if you don’t like it: pink is a good base for a vibrant yellow. At least that’s what painting dudes on youtube tell me

Yellow is both bright and vibrant but also quite strong industrial connotations – great for Orkish vehicles. I always find excessive amounts of pink to be overly garish. Pink, especially vibrant pink, is far better as a spot colour than a main colour. A more muted tone ssuch as a dusky pink might work better, like the British LRDG

@onlyonepinman good points – my spouse said I’d get sick of the pink and sell the army and just start over in 6 months. Probably true lol

Yellow it is.

No , I saw this years ago in a park in Prague , and since I already had a half dozen of these JS IIs built for Bolt Action , I thought I might just do something a little different

There are newer photos of it on pavement , so that’s what I built . Still looking for a few civilian type figures with cameras to complete the scene

Thanks . I tend to build 4 or more of the tank variants I like . I think I have 30 T-34/85s in 1/56 scale ones , IRC there another dozen or so in 1/35 . So after building a few buttoned up tanks , a few with full crew , some covered in tank riders or a damaged / knocked out vehicle , I try to find something a little bit different , hence the pink JS II .
