I second that. Love the MERDC. I think you should put together at least a company of them, he seems lonely.

Seems that MERDC is enjoying some popularity.
Nice work work redleg on the M60. This is, for me anyway, a challenging pattern to work up. I salute any who try it.
I’ve completed a US mech infantry company circa 1976 in the Winter verdant MERDC scheme:

Now you see, this right here is why I don't play Americans (among other reasons). I can't paint MERDC and you guys make it look GOOD!
Grats to both of you for awesome painting skills.

Great work on MERDC,
I’m impressed. Haven’t tried it.
Closest I have done was my ‘scrub’.

I like something like panzer gray for road wheels.

I agree. I use panzer grey or FS36118 (gunship grey) instead of black for all rubber items.

Maybe I'll give a dark gray color a shot. I started using NATO Black because it seemed a bit soft, almost like a very dark gray, but it still might be too dark.

That's fantastic, Mike! Great looking vehicles and I love the terrain! The backdrop is so cool, it really makes the photo come to life!
