Challenger 2 build

[43rdRecceReg]

Very instructive, Stian Thanks for detailing the technique you used. I have a Challenger 2 that has been waiting in the wings for nearly two years; but it will be an even longer wait considering the backlog of tanks I have building up
You have quite a unique example there, I'd have to say...

Thank you all for looking into this little build

With a few products you can make fine 'speckling' on your model to get even more interesting 'look'

Very informative and effective tutorial Mr Mekker
How does the Mig product secure to the surface after drying ?

I assume you use some sort of sealer ?

[maxmekker]

I seal the paint with varnish, then as I go on with weathering I kinda just leave it on with no further due. it sticks good , and stays put

tonights work

Nice build. How hard is it to install Chobham's armour?

Planning to get them for me C2

sorry for missing the question

it took a little while , and carefull drytesting before I popped the glue out . Did not want to make any mistake .
I also made an extra support brace , since I thought the area wich I could glue on was not enough

used 15 minute( ore was it 30 min ) z-poxy glue ( 2 part mix)

Been having some more time With it

Nothing to fancy going on

'speckling and more lowerhull mudding












then adding splashes from the splash and Heavy mud series Ammo



get the Wheels up and running to

[maxmekker]

And oil work on side's before adding yet again splash's
