Wow, VERY nice! That's probably my next project after my BTR-80A. Did you just use masking tape cut to shape for the camo masking?

I enlarged a scanned copy of the manual and cut it to use it as a stencil on masking tape. Then used the masking tape with the exact shapes.

Great job on that Tigr. I'd like to do one too, sometime this year, if I can find a paint scheme I like; I've been looking.

The winter pattern also looks real cool! I nearly went that way.

The colors I used are vallejo Air: Field green 71093; 71075 sand; 71 057 black. Tires: a mixture of 70995 German grey and 70992 neutral grey. dust over: a mixture of 70882 middlestone and 302 dark rust. Then various vallejo pigments and pigment binder. By the way, can anyone recommend a better pigment binder than the Vallejo?
