Missile Truck


I used flat white for the missiles.


These little applicators are good for reaching into some of the small spaces.


They come in several sizes.


Chassis being given their axles and wheels back.  Body given their interiors.


Missiles being prepared.


First two done.


I use epoxy mixed on bits of aluminum foil.

Painting


Painting missiles. 


Primer painting and then painted white by hand.


I cut out the rivets and put each car in a small plastic box.


This keeps all the bits together.


Missiles being brush painted, hold the front, paint the back.  Let them dry then hold the back and paint the front.  There is a space between missiles that stays OD and a bit of launch rack on the lower side too.

The tank makes an inviting target.


Two tanks are visible.


So is the anti-tank missile launcher.


An improved bazooka.


The command vehicle.


Infantry.


More troops move up.
