Looks good, Chad. Nice work. I guess the M-60 will be in another color than sand? :-)
Cheers

I think you did a great job on your camo.
Which airbrush are you using? I ask only cause i tried doing camo with the Tamiya standard airbrush nozzle and kinda failed miserably so would like to know how you did yours.

Chad,
Nice 'ol beastie. Pic #2...."sand" colored MG? Okay, okay, you're not done. Hehhehheh
I'm still amazed that you do this while running about the country in a rig. Remember, Colorado Springs there buddy!
