Hi all,

I usually build aircraft but I occasionally do some armour as well.

My build is a Tamiya Bradley which I will display in a diorama with some Dragon figures. Pictures follow. Comments and feedback most welcome.

Looking nice! I'm gonna build a Bradley too in the next months. With a/m barrel, ERA and tracks. It will also be in a Iraq diorama

Look good for me but I am not Bradley expert
Gino will make some comments and pointers wait for his post

Mark, great job on your ODS Bradley. Nice finsh. Great attention to detail.

Nice bradley i like the color and weathering shes gonna be a nice show piece in the end.

Great Bradley Mark! Did a fine job with the finish and weathering, looks good. Will be sweet with your figures, nice scene for sure.

Thanks for sharing! Cheers -

Your Brad looks great. I would suggest painting those ammo boxes on the rear of the turret grean. They don't come in any other color and it will add a bit of contrast to the overall sand color. Also, most of the rucksacks usually have some straps dangling off them. You coud make these from scrap PE.

Overall, a very nice job. I especially like the job you did painting the tracks.

Hi guys,

I've just completed this build and the Dragon figures. This was the first time I painted figures so they're not really up to scratch. Enjoy the photos!

hi mark, very nice....the tracks looks real. i like the weathering. what are those small granules scattered on the ground. they're so evenly. but it's ok. reminds me of red volcanic rocks around our place.. thanks for sharing. ed

Looks good,nice weathering and chipping bring it to life,are you teasing us with what I think is a Stryker 1128 in the background ?

Thanks for the C&C guys. Will use them to improvew on my next model.

@Tojo: Yup, that's the Stryker with the MGS in the background. I was doing that as a concurrent build with the Bradley but It has kinda lagged behind. Will finish it ASAP.

I'm also entering the Bradley in the local Tamiya Con (known here as M Con) which kicks off this week. So wish me luck!

Mark, I think you did an outstanding job on the bradley! and the figures as well.

If i may make two observations: first, the stuff sacks for the sleeping bags that are placed one the turret and hull, they are much to blue/grey. Also, the stuff sack behind the TOW launcher, that needs to move unless someone wants to be short a sleeping bag, it would get blown away from the backblast. Ours are straight flat black. Also, the PT/sleeping mats are in that same color. They should be a lighter green that the rucks, not grey.
Definately not trying to bash the model, its an outstanding job.

im pressive build,
the cookie camo on the figures is impresive !
the weathering on the tracks is superb,


keep it bud

You could have fooled me! Very nice Bradley & figures.
