I note that it has decals for the pixel camouflage, that's interesting

Pretty sure I'd rather use those as a template to make masks.

In 1/72 those are going to be really small..............

That’s what I was thinking too: painting the squares will be fairly doable in 1:35, a lot harder in 1:72. Not saying it can’t be done, of course, and in fact I would like to see a build where someone does just that

It's already been done.......I believe Mr. Ron, our gifted 570 did a 1-72nd scale chopper with digital camo that he "free handed", and very convincingly I might add. :thumb2:

I'm tempted to say "challenge accepted" :smiling5:

Will try and keep an eye out for it's release.

Cool I’ve been wanting to do a model in dual-tex camouflage for some years, but when I finally get round to it, it will be in 1:35 …

I missed this as we flipped over on to the next page.

I'll have a search for that. I do remember the stunning BTR 70 he did in desert digital. Way beyond my skill level back then and probably always will be!

It was Peter's Helicopter GB in 2022 I remember doing a Rooskie Mil Hind and Ron did a NH90 if I remember correctly. Hope this is helpful.
