Amazing work Igor! I plan on putting the new gunner's sight on the up-armored version of the BMP-3. What are your plans for the paint scheme?

Thanks Brian! Now, for me that is the main question. I have no airbush, so it will be hard to do camo. And i have some photos whit olive-drab painted "vesna's BMP-3". I prefer to paint it in one color, but first i will try to make camo.

Great job!
Regarding the hand painted camo, actual spot boundaries look quite neat so in my opinion you can do a good job even if you don't have an airbrush

Nice to see the primer on and ready for painting. Just take it slow and thin the paint well and brush-painting should be good. Best of luck with it!

Thank you Mauro!
I have never made camo, so i will try to paint the bottom, and if it will look good i'l paint all model.

I think that you have to prepare for long-time waiting
