SIGA MT-LB Complete

A short day today saw the end of this kit. I must admit I am quite pleased to see the back of it, or the side of it in this case.
The green was finished off with a light black wash, then the tracks and rubber on the wheels in a dark panzer grey.
Decals from the kit came next and they were a little fragile.
A light dried mud colour was then applied.
Now looking at it, I still have to paint in the head lamps and spot light. A nice addition to the force, but hardly recommended.

  1. Another brave effort Paul - a result considerably greater then the sum of it's parts.

    What is it?
    Tracked APC or does it have a hidden capability?

    I know I could Google but it's more fun this way :)

  12. Cheers Geordie, Armoured tractor. A APC or a towing vehicle or a command post or a comms vehicle, even a radar vehicle.

    A real mixed bag.
