More card, styrene, caviar beads and swearing.

Moving in the right direction   ;)
Joking as side I'd love to see you apply the same painting  techniques you use on figures ,on your builds (or just one shade and one highlight) as I think you selling your hard work short and falling into the trap lots of modellers do.In so far as your over familiar with your work so you know the detailing inside and out so it's still clear to your eye even in a flat colour.
It's personal choice of course either way still a lovely build.

I hate painting equipments of all kinds. I have no patience for pin washes or other techniques for vehicles or big things. These builds are purely for self indulgence and my pleasure has been in the building. The paint is slapped on just to see what it will look like with a bit of colour.

Fair enough your toys  lol

Now you've got BFG's out of your system I've a project that will fit in with your Palestine themed builds (it's one I've done a couple of times and have a master ready for my pulp range.)It'll use all the techniques you've got a handle on but looks completely different to BFG's.
Interested? Before you say yes I do have to warn you it will require a serious amount of swearing.

'Gunning at express train speed on the tigris' was enough for me.
