Ah, I get these bursts of manic painting of vehicles, (I also have some other projects for friends to finish) but the inspiration to get them done hits me and well....you know how things go with me, the third camo bit, decals, touch ups, details like vision-blocks and lights etc, then the dirtying them up a tad bit.

Now for the Gecko! I made rear handrails/tie down points as well.

Dragons fear nothing, if it acts up, we breath magic fire that turns them into marshmallow peeps. We leaguers only cry rivets!

did you make those smaller handrails on the back too? the bigger on the sides...it would look better if you have given it something of that look:




will there be a second one on the other side as well?

Nice stuff Shas! You are an armor-painting machine! You ever consider airbrushing camo? I have never done that myself, but on other things it has really sped up painting, and you can get cool blend patterns.

I have, costs of airbrush and then support elements have been a bit restrictive on me, as well as I sometimes tend to "shake" a bit with that darned arthritis of mine.

going airbrush is a whole new big leap in the hobby... needs lots of things like more space and tools and all this stuff... something i too am not able to afford or provide... but boy i would love to make my fingers want to try out one of these "paintguns" ^^

i really like your squiggly lines... very good again...

what exactly will the ARV do in a battle? is it armed at all? or is it helpless?

The ARV has the job of repair/or recover, it also can use the ability as ammo carrier if I have artillery, or can be an objective for the battles that use placed objectives on the table. It is unfortunately not armed itself.

Being mostly open, the back tires will leave splatter as well, the fron tires have the fenders, which will also make some interesting patterns, but get ready to see a wiper pattern across muddy glass!

You know what they say about Great Minds Vik.

As my machines will be covered in their muddiness, and utilitarian as befits my army concept, yours takes the opposite and must be more like fighting art Vik old boy!
