Just a quick post to show one of my current projects. These vehicles are a set of Marine MTVR Mark 23s. Currently only the base coat and the windows are done. Still need to do the Cargo Tarp, head and tail lights, 50 cal and some odd bits of detail.

Nice trucks Hoth! Love the detail line the front fenders!

I am a hand brush guy by the way, i’d love to get an airbrush but I feel like I wouldn’t know how to use it especially at such a small scale.

Thanks to everyone for the comments.

Burtwolf,
You would be surprised. I have never used and airbrush before painting miniatures. I use it for base coats exclusively. I can base coat a ton of miniatures with multiple layers in record time. And because the paint is thinned and atomized it keeps slot of the detail visible. Then when you do camo your not getting too thick. PM me and I can send you the YouTube vid I used to start.

Thanks Hoth! Sending you a PM now. That’s one reason I don’t do a lot of camo because my have painting obscures the details i like so much on the GHQ models.

Pvt that’s a great collection - nice work, thanks for sharing!

I have added pictures of the Mechanized Infantry Brigade-. Front two M577's are the Divisional and Brigade command vehicles with two infantry brigade vehicles behind them. M113 is mostly CnC with a single GHQ. M577, M106 & M901 all GHQ.

Thanks Tom! Your collection is huge!

Great looking vehicles. Love the terrorist models… what does that say about me? Lol

If I may… Where or how did you get the M-113 gunner in place? As I was scrolling through the 24th Mechanized Infantry and saw this…
