Very interesting. What textured spray did you use?

Plasti-kote Stone Touch - I've used multiple variations within the range and seeing as you're painting over it it doesn't matter the colour

Thanks.

It looks like a good texture, I will give it a try.

Surprise! New post is up looking at some improvised Technical weapon systems. I was writing up something for Friday when I realised I haven't written about some of the other technical bits I have assembled.

That has inspired me to look through my Empress and Spectre bits to see what I can cobble together.

Any idea on the smallest vehicle a sane person would bolt on some of this heavy weaponry?

You see things like the UAZ jeep and other small vehicles mounting .50cals and SPG-9s.

If you want to go smaller, SOF quadbikes seem to be fitted with weapons
