Vietnam Convoy, part 1
« on: April 25, 2010, 08:05:34 AM »
First leg done!  :)











I can honestly say this is my best work to date. Weathering, dusting, the colours, beside 1 or 2 small points it all worked the way I wanted and I managed to find a way to do glass (and be happy with it) that isn't gloss black. Change forced upon by the black paintjobs of the guntrucks, but a change I like a lot.

Hope you like.

Thanks all  :)

They are all the same model, Brittania Miniatures M35 truck, the tanker has the fueltank from a Zil truck transplanted, and the short wheelbase tractor rig is a cut down M35 truck with some extra plasticcard bits and aluminium exhaust.
