I got this kit a while back, and only finished it last month or so.
Like most of my modern armor kits, I had fun with this kit, giving it a made-up scheme, and using it mostly as a test bed for weathering experimentation.
build pics:
This kit had very touchy and finicky suspension, which was nearly impossible to get level (in fact I failed to fully level out all the wheels);
After the suspension, building went too fast for pictures, and after a failed "spray"-type desert camo scheme, I painted it straight-up sand.
I figured that adding dirt to the running gear and underside would be best done as sand build-up. I've seen that some modelers used textured spray-paint on their kits, so I attempted to use sand-colored spray paint for sand build up.
What do you think of it?
I'll put up final pics in the next post.
