I was wondering when this would see the light of day Ron. Waiting to see what you make of it.
PS I'm no angel folks - Ron did pay me!
....and the cheque didn't bounce!
Thanks for the posts boys. Sorry for the delay in replying but 'tis now the season of much travelling.
I'm not trying to copy any particular 'Design', I'm doing my own theme, size and colour and this vehicle probably didn't have this type of camo. So please don't pull me up for any possible inaccuracies - It's a work of pure fiction. I'm just having fun and trying something new to me.......
Before I went on walkabout I brush painted the model all over in the lightest colour of the three I intend to use for the camouflage, which is Vallejo
Model Air Dessert Sand. Yesterday afternoon I decided what size 'Squares' would look summat like, then marked where I intend painting the digits with a pencil. I've not been too fussy with this, as I can hopefully correct any wobbles with each coat of fresh paint. I might fail miserably but I have to at least try. I'd go bonkers modelling the same sort of subject and not attempting something away from the norm.
I have left off a load of bits off to make the digital painting easier. These will be glued on later and then blended in.
Next up. Diddy brush out and apply the second darkest colour.
Cheers.
Ron
