after doing the BMP2 ive developed an interest in Russian stuff so will like watching this one going together

[monica]

A nice looking kit Monica, although you'll have to restrain your heavy weathering on this one!

glad that you do like this one,Patrick,yes ,yes ,I know,its a matter of these last few touches lol, O.o


but this one I have plans for a whole  different camo,,setting , so it will be done,reasonable  , 9_9

[monica]

well an update on this one,have the crocodile together, 9_9


some parts were a tad bit fiddly,but no major problems,but all in all,a nice build,


next will be the ase coat then,start on my camo,and yes there will be a surprise,as we jump 70 yrs forwards to modern day,


I know maybe some think you should not do,but the Rission,did have a lot of surplus after the war,and things are always found in sheds,


and so on,


but It will all tie together,as what setting I,m put it in, o.O


well I do hope you like my idea,time for a wee kip,

[monica]

well this is the idea I,m going for, O.o


and I know this is a bit,of a dogs,dinner,But I will be able to fix it up,all just went heads,up


with the paint,the AB,would not spray then splatter,and so on,but no real biggie all can be fix,


and I do like to show when it all cockup as it happens to us all,


and plus I got a wee bit lost as well,

[Guest]

Monica, how do your WIP threads go from sprue shots to the built model??  O.o  I think you've got some kind of stasis field around your workbench!


That camo scheme you're attempting would really have been easier if you'd masked off the colours, rather than doing it freehand. But I'm sure you'll turn a dogs dinner into the dogs danglies  :P


Nice toenail varnish btw

[Guest]

Liking the look of this Monica even if you do say it's a dogs dinner right now.

[Guest]

I dont think it looks too bad, many times camo schemes have soft edges especially in modern vehicles that get re-painted quite often.
