At the end of last month, I completed a 1:72 scale modern Chinese soldier set launched by the 3D printing brand Xiao Yang Shifu. I first tested China’s latest camouflage pattern on a machine gunner, then painted three tank soldiers. However, I still feel it’s quite challenging to accurately replicate this camouflage pattern at this scale.

Impressive what can be achieved at such a fine scale

You’ve done a great job in such a small scale- the various uniform details and equipment are really well picked out.

Thank you, Johnny. By the way, with your earlier help, I have finished assembling the 1/72 scale Academy BATUS Challenger 1. I replaced some of the original plastic parts with 3D printed components, including the smoke grenade launchers and the mesh racks on the sides of the turret. I also added some custom-made details. Finally, I incorporated some of Black Dog’s resin stowage products onto it. I’ll make a separate post to talk about it later.

I could never get camo like that replicated in 1/35; i caqnnot even begin to imagine the leve of finesse required for 1/72. My compliments, @Jim99 you sir, are a master.
