I'll echo that I love "these" things. I also love Ma.K. being somewhat similar to this piece?

Thanks for sharing what I don't see enough of and I like the job you did and scheme you chose!

Very nice Sentinel.  I love these guys, and have a ton more than I will ever field in a standard game.

Two comments, first, I would drill out the barrel of the heavy flamer.  Secondly, your hydraulics on the legs are too shiny and new.  Add some browns and greens to represent fluid leakage/buildup, and some grime.  Look at any vehicle with hydraulics, they are always dirt, mud, and dust magnets!

Nice build, keep it coming!

Nice work on the camo paint scheme.  I've built one of these myself.  It's a fun little kit.

Thanks for the kind words, they're appreciated.

G, the scale is supposedly 28mm, which translates to roughly 1/68.

I built this about a year ago, it's out of the box.  It's now on a small round base with ground work.  The "chocolate chip" camo was hand painted using MM/ACRYL "Mahogany flight deck," "Panzer interior buff" and flat black on a base coat of US Army/Marines desert tan.  The interior was painted "interior green' and numerous outher colors to bring out the details.

The flame gun has since been drilled out and a pilot flame added  The entire vehicle was given a wash of "grimy black" and them oversprayed with PollyScale's "Dust."

 

All comments welcome....

Greg
