31 days left folks!
The GALLERY is filling up nicely. Don't forget to add TWO photos of your finished build and best of luck to everyone in the final run in.

Just an update of my build. After receiving a base coat of dark green, it was highlighted in yellow green, and matt varnished

I'm calling this one done.









All in all, I enjoyed the kit and I enjoyed the campaign. It's my first Stryker so I built it OOB. I'll upload a couple of shots into the Gallery by week's end. Thanks for the Campaign Pat.

Thanks guys.

Lots of nice work being done here. Like that Stuart Honey. Almost a shame to cover all that work with paint. Seam, I'm building an RSOV for Paul's Desertized Campaign so it was great to see it built up. Anyway, way too many to note without leaving anyone out.

Wow there are some really nice builds here - this campaign is picking up steam!

I have put a coat of gloss over the initial paintwork, and once dry I gave a few coats of Grey for Green filter and Green for Allied tanks filter, both from Sin Industries. Then I gave a general wash of AK Interactive dark wash for Nato vehicles.



Next I will complete all the detail painting and then start the mud.
Cheers

Just the one pic of progress on my SdKfz 222 as my camera skills are on a par with my painting skills

For a change I was quite pleased with how painting the base coat went, but I don't think I have really got the hang of doing washes yet. I always seem to end up making a mess of it.

Well I think I will sit and look at the Centauro for a while, but it seems complete to me so far.
