Waiting on gloss to dry, started another one.



Found a cheap deal on e-Bay on some built Dragon BMPs and decided to change the turrets into some unique APCs.



The barrel was damaged ....



...so I repaired it. I have never used brass for a barrel before, but it looks pretty good to me...



More later...

Exciting production, I can not wait to see the finished effect will be friends.

UPDATES:

Major paint and decals completed.



First wash with artist's oils (Ivory Black) completed.







The majority of this wash will be removed hopefully getting rid of the pooling in areas that don't need it. If not, dry-brushing should help !

COMPLETED:






Nothing special really. A little dry-brushing and some pastel chalks. I just wanted to have another BMP to add to the collection.

Thanks for looking.
