Clearing mines on the beach.

Moving along parallel to the water to make a wider beach landing area.

Having several mine clearing vehicles together can make a wider and safer.

Two side by side and one in the middle to clear the gap.

Here they are getting primer painted.

 I usually paint the bottom of models first and then when they are dry I can flip them over and paint the other side.  Since these are made out of several different materials and different colors primer painting of these is essential.  It will help the actual paint to stick and it will create a uniform base color for the top coat paint.
