Be a shame to cover up that camo Leon, you going mud or dust?

Gary thanks bro .A little more detail painting and it will be ready for a clear coat along with the M48,which is giving me the evil eye. |

WOW! Great job on the camo! Another thing you should consider doing... spray very heavy thinned base coat which is sand or tan you used. I meant very heavy like 90% thinner or water depending what kind of paint you used TO 10% paint. Then spray mist all over it... that will make the camo blend together.
I like your plan doing light dust... looking forward to more of this.

Dan thank you buddy. Wouts,all my camo is hand painted as i don't own an airbrush. Thom thank you,i'm happy with the results. Andy no problem buddy,we tend to forget things as we get older.  |
