In person it looks amazing, I must get some better photos once it’s weathered.
Weathering will really make this beast come aliveImage

Hey Adam, great work you put in this. It definitely is. For my taste I am still not absolutely sure how to rate this kind of camo. I was already sold on your dark base colors and had expected your splinter would be based on that. We'll see how the weathering changes things. Keep it up.

Hindsight I should have reversed the camo but the weathering will tone it down.

"Hindsight I should have reversed the camo..."

I don't think so, Adam. It is a unique take on the theme, but, I'll tell you what...it does what camo is supposed to do. It breaks up the outline of the beast so you have to look hard to see just what kind of a tank you're taking aim at.

Nicely done all the way around, from conception to execution. Congrats. Very nicely done!
