This one is for a club build with the theme of "Mad Max"(the movies). Construction and paint  is complete and it is time to do the weathering and add the home-made field expedient weaponry. The scrap-box comes in handy.

The paint is all brushed-painted freehand in the German armor "ambush" pattern.

More later, Adios, Larry.

Mad Max is set in post-apocalyptic- Australia. The movies star is a young Mel Gibson. They are full of cobbled-together what-if machinery.

Adios, Larry.

I love it! :)  Great colour scheme.

I built that kit as a child many years ago.  I wish someone would release one in 1/48.

Here are some finished pics. I have the bodged-up ordnance installed. I weathered the thing with acrylic craft paint thinned with alcohol and applied with brushes. I did the exhaust stains the same way. Adios, Larry.

That's one of the wildest camo schemes I've seen yet!

I've got to tip my hat to such talent and creativity!
