FINAL MARKINGS!

Finally got to make the last custom decals (chevrons and numbers) and transferred these on the RC tank. A few paint touch ups, followed by a wash, then a clear flat coat to seal everything.

Getting closer to finishing Nub Nub.

Glossy no more! After a light wash, gave it a clear flat coat to seal everything.

A few more details to add like the vision blocks. Rest of the stowage will be arriving end of the month or next along with the Pikachu crew (the other Pikachu figures that arrived earlier were too small). I'll have to scratchbuild some ammo boxes and find a way to make cast copies. Sometime next year this and the Leo will have the Vampire battle unit.

Thats all in one gumboot now mate, looks sensational. I will say I'm not entirely convinced of your crew choice, but hey, whatever blows your hair back eh !

After seeing film of these things in 'use' since 1990-sporting sand deco, the NATO look is quite cool :clap:

Any thought given to putting some grenade in the launchers or making covers for them?

With the tank dull coated, it was time to add the mud flaps for the front fenders. Used bicycle tube for it.

Well... it's been a while. I haven't installed the last bits because I've been too busy playing with the tank as it is hehehe anyhow, the new Pikachu figures arrived and they are as small as the first batch. Oh well. I'll just use all of them.

So here's Team Pikachu:

The Always Angry Driver:

Image


The Stoic Loader:

The TC and his personal hunter-killer system hehehe

And the Useless Always Drunk Zampolit hehehe

:haha:

My jerrycans and packs arrived a few days ago and it's time to kit up the M1. For now, I made one of those OIF-I era racks for up to three jerrycans. This only made their appearance during OIF-1, the invasion of Iraq itself, and AFAIK only in the 3ID. It's a field mod but I like it so I made one for my M1A2.
