Armor/AFV Modern

Luc Harvey shares some pictures of his vignette entitled “Atomic Winter”. He writes:

This is my vignette that I titled “Atomic Winter”, something halfway between nuclear war and science fiction, scale 1/35. This project starts with two old DML kits, a BRDM-2 as the base and the turret from a BMP-1. I used some photoetched part for the BRDM-2 (Eduard) as well as many pieces from my spares box to give a weird look of this vehicle. The figure is from Meng with some modifications. I painted the vehicle with several different brands of acrylic paint and the base is made with insulation board with Tamiya textured paint (snow effect).

hahaha! I LOVE what you did there! Colin, (I’m going to guess that is your name…) that model is looking great! I, personally, always have wondered how people get soooo much detail. I mean, look at that figure!
