Hello guys.Here is my BMP-2K.THis model represents a Macedonian Army vehicle.I added some minor details and removed some so it would represent a K command vehicle.This is my first serous armor build so be gentle I added only the metal RB 30mm canon just to add some realism because the kit part was verry crude and bad.The markings are drawn in corel and than made masks on a cutter.I spreyed them with my airbrush.The flag is home printed on inkjet printer and white decal paper.
Enjoy the photos

Looks pretty good! I like the weathering, in particular the paint chipped away from the white numerals. I believe yours may be the first Macedonian vehicle ever to appear on this forum.

I like your BMP. Could you explain which details you changed to make an k-varaint? I assume you added some antennas, or? The 1/72 planes you build are really impressiv. At then time when i saw what you did with the mastercraft Su-17 kit,i was so impressed that i simply had to build my one mastercraft su-22. So it's good to see that you added tanks to your repertoire too.

Thanks guys.Well I do plan to make many more 1:35 models so no worries Next will be a revell 1:35 BRDM-2 during the war in 2001.THis one will be a Macedonian Police armored vehicle.I plan to build one and a friend of mine will build another one at the same time.Well all I had to do is reposition the antenas on the back of the vehicle and delete some side panels and opennings.Also I added one rubber panel on the back of the turret.On the front plate I deleted some details and repositioned some of the smaller detailed parts.Nothing fancy and anyone can make this modification with a little effort.
