Thanks Gary !!

It was a fun project, the stowage brings some life into it.
I'll get on the second build now, here where it was a few month ago..



Also need to work on the jagdpanzer IV and on the King Tiger Campaign...

I did some more stuff on my JGSDF LAV - it got real dirrrrrrrrrrty !

I used Tamiya soil effects to push dirt/mud into and onto the LAV



the brush will be destroyed



its sets really solid



then some dust applied nearly like a wash



and white spirit to blend it



and so far...







I think some real wet splatter mud next ...

@ Alex,

I have one of these in my stash, a cool looking vehicle and a monster build. I'm going to follow your updates.


@John,

Nice build on the 223, I've built one in the past because they are such a sweet looking vehicle. seeing the one you've finished with the stowage makes me want to build another one.

@Mark,


nice build and weathering on your JGSDF LAV, I've never seen that tamiya product, have to keep my eyes open.

I have an M1025 Humvee that I just started building and I was wondering if this vehicle would be acceptable for this campaign.

Thanks:)

Mark, that's some stunning work you did with the Tamyia's Mud !

Very nice stryker Aaron. I think i have made a mistake with the jerry cans. I painted them olive green,are all the jerry cans nowadays in Tan color?



Sorry for the slow reply. Unfortunatly, I'm afraid so. The only colours of jerry cans I've observed for the Stryker FOV have been a caramel brown for the fuel cans and a sort of buff colour for the water containers. A repaint should be an easy fix ,though.

Well, i officially backed out of this campaign. There's no way i can finish in time, especially as i haven't even started yet. I have 2 campaigns as it is to finish up and no motivation at the moment.
