discussion Tamiya 1/48 Type 16 MCV

[Guest]

A little knock together project I've been doing over the past couple of days while the others are sidelined.

A lovely kit to build like the other I did from this 1/48 series, and I'm tempted to buy another to have a "proper" go at it. Correcting some inaccuracies, going to town on the paint job & weathering, and loading it up with stowage as I've seen on a few reference pictures. I think this one looks respectable enough for a quickie though .

Fortunately for this I had the main colours in both Mr Color and Vallejo, so I airbrushed the basic camo with lacquers, then went over with the Vallejo stippling on a few lighter and darker tones to give it a bit of life, something that's pretty much impossible with lacquers.

Only a quick head-clearer really but I'm happy with how it came out. Maybe I should do more of them, it seems like the longer I spend on something the more mistakes I make! :smiling5:
