Glad your still around Robbo may be this will help the old mojo. I had planned to do some DIY but this kept winking at me so who am I to say no. Well set the old compressor to a pressure lower than a flys fart on I went this has been done free hand next up blend away the overspray. . DSC08999 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. .I managed to find some pics of these beasts on ranges and with the camo guide in the kit did the following. . DSC08996 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. Its quiet an open cam and I think it come out as it should be. . DSC09001 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. I had planned on weathering and pin washing the green first, but settled for getting all the cam on and go for it. Rgs ALL Mac

Luigi soz for the wait mate I have been messing with earth effects today heres the result ....thus far. . DSC09027 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. . DSC09028 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. I have used a combo of mig dried Mud AK earth filters and Mig powder pigment. . DSC09031 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. . DSC09032 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. .Well its still at high gloss the filters and Modulation will start to dull things down . I don't matt at this point because I want the filters to lay on the base coat not tint it so I can wipe mistakes away and start again if needed. Rgs Mac
