Hi everybody,
here is my M1126 Stryker from AFV-Club in 1/35.
Except for a few parts, which I lost during the building and which I replaced with Scratch-buildings and the the water and fuel cans, the kit was build ooB.
It`s my third work in 1/35
I´m not sure if I should add some more stowage.
What do you think???
Comments are welcome
Chris

She sure is dirty I always liked the look of the stryker without stowage.

What techniques did you use to weather this? It looks really good.

Thanks everybody
It`s really nice to see, that I`m not the only person, who likes the model
@cyclones6 & Tojo72
I used the weathering techniques from the MIG Vol.1 DVD.
You mix Acrylic Resin, Sand, Water, Pigments and Plaster to a muddy mixture and apply it on the model.
Instead of using different Pigment-mixtures, I added more tone`s with my airbrush and Tamiya`s "Buff" and "Desert Yellow"

Very nicely done. I love the weathering. You may want to paint the large lens on the RWS a gloss black however.

Thanks Robert
The lens has a clear part and in the clear part it is gloss black
But you don`t see it on the pictures
The Pics are not the best, so I make new ones, when the sun gives a bitter light
