Awesome work. I love those WWI Camouflage patterns and colors, to me, they are more interesting than other ear patterns and colors. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Scarred. The tracks were painted a grey metallic and then hit with a bunch of random paint pigments. I used a set of Fruil tracks because the kit tracks were a nightmare to work with.

Not after the rivets shredded my first set of decals! Trying to get them in place would rip the decals. I had to borrow a set from a friend who was not going to use the crosses on his model. And even then it took a bunch of Solviset to get them to snuggle down around the rivets.
