This is another old build that I stripped and repainted. I want to see if any changes were needed before I dullcoat. Pics are taken with my cellphone so sorry for the pic quality. Thanks for looking.

Your camouflage pattern is outstanding. How did you do it?

Thanks for the kind comments, I just free-handed the camo and got lucky it turned out well.

I agree about the camo...awesome. Very nice build and luck or not, you have some skills with the airbrush.

Solid looking paint job. Camo is perfect, and the interior has nice weathering and paint chipping.

a 100x100 better than my 1/72 attempt at this vehicle. Great camo and excellent weathering. Put a figure or two in it and watch it drive right off the bench.

Looks very nice Robert, love the camo and the detail work. The only thing I can spot that needs attention is the tracks. The top runs look like they are floating. Maybe just glue them down to the road wheels?

I'll second Matt's comments.
Also you could give the seat backs another dark wash to define the circular holes better, and run some 'rain' marks down the sides vertically to dirty up the marking a bit.
Very good.
