Still need to work on the spare tracks...
Missing the antenna mount.. I forgot.
Still mesh covered frame, green camo, decals, weathering...

Today's update:
Camo
Still missing,
After the camo I applied some filters
Decals
I also gave 2 track wash coats.
Tomorrow antenna mount & hopefully the top structure mesh..
It's going to be a close call since my free time until Thursday will be very short..

Anyone else think they could use an extra week to finish? Maybe I can twist John's arm to grant an extension and give himself (and me)a break 
I could do with the extra time myself what a disgrace to not finish your own campaign

Thanks Sal !
I did with a brush, but tried different shapes and strokes since it was done by different crew members, I tried to replicate it the best I could.
A few things missing, I'm hoping to get it done by the end of the week !!

My first campaign complete. Ouch, that paint job doesn't look so bad to the naked eye!
By the way, how do I upload these to the campaign gallery rather than my own gallery?

And the two pictures added. No weathering or gear since I am not sure where I will put the lil one. Current idea is to show it next to a Challenger 1 or Chieftain with the crews talking

Well I’m going to call this one done. I was planning to add this to the dio I’ve started, but just ran out of time. Oh well, at least the model it’s self is finished and I’ll just have to work on the base when I have more time from work and family.

Looking great everyone!
I'd love to add my completed photos, but am having trouble loading them to Photobucket. Is it me, or is there some issue with the site anyone else is having?
Hope to get them up soon! And hoping to have more time to burn wuth models, and not with uploading photos of them!

To John and Christopher, very impressed with your camo jobs!
Kevin: A very nice first cmpaign, it seems. AS for the pics vs. naked eye view, it's the same for all of us, I think!
Regards
Javier

I've enjoyed following this campaign, and love the light recon vehicles! Unfortunately, I have spent far too much time trying to upload images and have given up.
I built the Zvezda Soviet M-72 motorcycle with sidecar. It was great fun to build and I'd recommend it to anyone! The sidecar rider firing the machine gun is pretty unique, and the Zvezda figures are MUCH better than the older Zvezda kits I have built.

John I have no objection as campaign leader but at some stage we do have to draw a line in the sand
