M1A2 w/mine plows that I just finished painting.
I do hope you like the camo, the boxes on top.
There are 3 coolers on top one on each of 3 Abrams. A rectangular red cooler, a round orange cooler by Gatorade, and a round blue cooler. I may need to add some more paint to the coolers.

Matching the Medium Green I used to use from spray can.
Had Home Depot match, I got a quart of water based paint. I will switch to oil based paint.
Plan to also have a match of paint for Military Brown, and Dark Green.
These are with the match painted.
The 2 tanks are the spray medium green, the CV90 and Tracked Rapier new paint after hand painted.
I hope the color shows ….

Lots of good stuff Chris! I particularly like your artillery, but the gunnery sergeant for the M777 battery is not going to be happy about those crates laying around!
I think you did a good job of matching your colors. I always suck at getting spray and bottle colors to match up- I think you cracked the code on that!

Mike, thank you. We shall see when (if) I airbrush… if I do we shall see how color matches.
I may use Black 1/2 paint/primer then apply the green, then military brown.
Well shall see.
Mike, take care.

OTO Melera anti-air Gun system.
In 3-tone NATO camo is one I did 25+/- years ago, probably late 1990s. It’s armed with 76mm.
It’s on the Leopard 1 hull. This weekend is OTO Melera 105 AA,
Finished this one, have another one to do on Abrams hull.

When you need to see if a viable target, send the U-2.
Once found send the B-58 Hustler.
