MOre WIP Pics: 1/72 scale ACE BMP 2
Posted by Duke Maddog on Monday, December 29, 2003 1:53 PM
Okay, my BMP 2 is almost ready to finish painting. Then I shall be able to start detailing it.

Here is a shot of the Photo Etch that went on the turret to simulate applique armor:



Sorry about the poor quality of the picture. Here it is after the side skirts were put on, and most of the base coat was started:



Then after this, I was able to put on the final Photo Etch parts:



Now, the kit basecoat has been finished and the Pattern painted on, but I haven't got pics of that yet. I'll probably have them up in a day or so.

It feels good to finally be on the Homestretch with this thing!

Where's the PE from, Duke?

Looks good, by the way!

Actually, it came in the kit! Very convenient, especially since I can't afford P/E. I've found that ACE includes P/E in nearly all their kits, particularly their most recent releases.
