251st Independent Mechanised Brigade
start of the little details and mud
been a mild hiatus as work, and child care/wife got in the way of hobby time as its the holidays so i had to interact with them, and i have to go off to see family up north so again hobby time will be curbed. Anyway back to the subject at hand today i managed a hour or so before i had to go look at a grainy picture of spawn number two thats being baked by the wife. So i managed to find some appropriate scale British Army tac decals, problem is the green i sprayed the Mac is too dark to see the decals properly so i had to do a not very tactical background to get them seen but it’s not too far from what (era dependent) the army used. a good little bit of info for anyone looking at B.O.A.R markings are the Military Vehicle owners website’s like this one https://www.emlra.org/index.php/articles/painting-and-marking-post-war-british-vehicles-p-4-4
as it can be a pain to find stuff on the web that isn’t based on WW2 Uk armed forces. I still going to add a few other decals from the standard decal set from a leman russ to add a Div marking.
i also started using some home made weathering powders to start the mud layers starting with the dried on bits before adding the wet mud layer. ill do a step by step when i get back from telford. i will also clean up the little bits of over spray when i get back as well. oh also have some chipping fluid work on the exhaust stacks which again i will get some pictures. so tatty by for now
