Looks suitably abandoned and burnt out Scott, mission accomplished I think. Good work on the damage.

Good stuff Scott, looks very realistic, the rust is sublime and the burning is spot on.

Superb job with those rust effects Scott.

[Guest]

thank you barry

Looks great to me Scott. A very convincing burnt out BMP. Nice airbrush and pigment use and the colours are just right.


Will this be going into a dio? An Abrahms/Challenger/Bradley/Warrior passing the destroyed troop carrier perhaps?


Cheers

Hi Scott.


All the damage and rusting and burnt effect are great and extremely well done.


But as this is in a critique section.I would like to point out that the tracks seem to be floating in space(front and rear)


I do however believe that this perspective will disappear when placed on the groundwork and there is sand dirt build up.


I hope this is what you were wanting to know

I think that looks excellent Scott. There's a nice variation of colours going on which adds interest & realism.


I'm doing something similar with a KV-2 & wondered if I was on the right lines. But having seen yours, I know I am so thanks for your (inadvertent) help

Nice!

All been said Scott.  I assume the ash from the rubber tyres will come with the basing up.  Only thing I would suggest if you do another is to leave some vestiges of paint even if discoloured and partially blackened just to add contrast to the rust and hint at what it used to be.  Certainly not a criticism as this is obviously one that may have been totalled to the max.

Nice job Scott rust looks great.

thanks guys, it will be going into a diorama, it is a vehicle that has been abandoned and destroyed since the yom Kippur war so its been there for almost 50 years. Thanks for your input.
