Camo can be a pain in the arse for sure. Have you considered a hand painted scheme instead?

Having a little loss of mojo, I've finally done the camouflage. Not the same as the box art, but I'm calling it done. Later on today, I'll give it a gloss coat, which can dry off for a couple of days before I carry on. Next stage will be a few decals, a bit of light weathering and the crew. Meanwhile, I think I'll take the opportunity to start another build. I've got one in mind. No camouflage for a start! Just a nice Tamiya 1/48th bit of armour. 🤓   |

Porco, I think that is exceptional camouflage! It might not be the box art, but it sure is amazing!

Joe, that mottled camo looks great. Looks like the mojo is back on.

Thank you Pete, Duke, Ian, Paul, & , beano. much appreciated.
I gave it a gloss coat yesterday, so I'll leave it to harden off for a couple of days.
In the meantime, I start another build later today.

Just four decals to apply. I used Micro set and, Micro sol to bed them down. Next, a wash and brush up.  |
