Very nice BTR, iking As T said, the weathering is nice and realistic. How did you make the antenna wire from guitar string? Here they sell the strings bent in circle and they tend to stay bent. How do you straighten them?

thank you thank you thank you guys for the kind words! really appreciate it! comrade bullardino, they do sell it also here in rounded form but what i did is use some pliers and carefully straighten the wires. kind of tricky because the guitar strings are quite not flexible compared to copper wires but slow and repeated bendings worked for me. hope this helps!

Man that looks sweet. The weathering and paint look great. Something about those two colors that make weathering so much fun .
