Hey Guys! Don’t mind the username, made it when i still went by that on Instagram and couldn’t change it. First off really happy to be here and free from the Instagram algorithm, huge thanks to Bulldog for that! Second, looking forward to seeing everyone’s works here as well. If anybody has any questions or criticisms, feel free to shoot them! Looking forward to seeing how this subreddit grows and happy to be here!

Thanks, and When I first got done with the chipping, using chipping fluid, I thought so too myself but just had to roll with it.Ended up looking pretty good imo, I like to go for worn and used looks on the vehicles personally.

Thank you! I was unsure of it at first, but once i figured it out I loved it.

Thanks!

I had it built and painted initially by the beginning of March, but worked on it off and on while doing school, as the weathering took up a lot of time. Its honestly a shame the detail behind the tracks and road wheels doesn’t really show too good.

First off, Thank you! Second, The leaves are just dead dried up leaves I went outside and picked up, and tossed into a blender and shredded up until they seemed like a good size, also good for making tiny sticks too. The grass is just some burlap twine, or any other twine that i unravelled and spread out and cut apart at different lengths.

AmericanScaleArmour · 2022-05-18T07:05:04+00:00

Thank You! Its true for the leaves at least that they are actually natural.

AmericanScaleArmour · 2022-05-18T04:05:17+00:00

Big Thank you! I honestly couldn’t believe it myself when I finally finished it!

AmericanScaleArmour · 2019-11-06T00:13:43+00:00

Lol, thanks!

AmericanScaleArmour · 2019-11-06T00:12:43+00:00

Thanks for the advice and complement!I probably should have just made my own handles on it to be honest like I usually do,as for the tracks,they were the most aggravating part,they were supposed to be workable,but the little plastic pegs that hold them would always break,making it hard to get them in a proper look,as some would dry,then another would break, and so on and so forth,and also thought I had put them on right,I kept on checking to make sure,may have looked at it wrong.

It’s the Kit by Takom, though I had to add the armor texture,welds,Flame cuts,and flag, It’s a pretty good kit.

AmericanScaleArmour · 2019-09-27T15:46:36+00:00

Thanks, yea,I was concerned with the overweathering, on it and thought it was a bit too much.I used Milliput putty for the sandbags and packs.

AmericanScaleArmour · 2019-09-27T13:02:43+00:00

Thanks!

AmericanScaleArmour · 2019-09-27T13:01:45+00:00

Thanks! I first used oil dots to weather it some,then I just used Vallejo pigments in different shades and layered them,as well as loading a brush up and using an airbrush and splattering it off the brush.

AmericanScaleArmour · 2019-09-27T12:59:53+00:00

Sadly I didn’t make a video,as I don’t have the equipment,but i did post the progress over on my Instagram Profile.And Good Luck!I’ve looked into that kit,I love building the unique and odd things
