Thanks for sharing your method which by the way is mine as well but with not so brilliant results
I will certainly read your feature some more times to hope approaching your level.

Really nice article I hope mine comes out as good as yours. I never painted a NATO 3 color camouflage an this will help a lot when I paint my Abrams.
Happy modeling
