Hi guys,
Here are a few photo's of what I am working on at the moment.
It's Academy's M-60 Blazer (I know it's not the most accurate one but it works for me ) that I am going to practice some (for me) new weathering technieks.
Accept for the Friuls(that are not in the photo) and the barrel Depo barrel it is OOB.
The base coat is on. still a few things to do and I can start weathering.









More photo's when I get more done.

Looking forward to see more.

Looks pretty good. Take it outside and photograph it in the daylight so we can see it better when you get it finished!



Good luck, Gary

Hi,

I seem to be having a problem with the same model you built (looks neat btw)

Can you tell me what's the meaning of the instruction in the red circle?

Thanks.

If you are not going to use the light gard you should add those two plastic things ( I think they are to simulate bolt heads)

Hoop it hels.
