Finally, I painted the BMP-1TS. I was inspired by the photo of this vehicle in the 25th brigade. It was an amazing adventure in which I first tried chipping fluid. Of course, everything did not go according to plan and in the areas that were painted with an RC marker, the paint immediately peeled off in large pieces. But overall, I am satisfied with the result. Now it’s time for weathering. I also made a detailed video of the painting process (with subtitles, of course):

Very nicely done paintwork- the chipping is well observed too!

I think the silver chips are still too big, but it’s what it is. For the first time, it’s not bad)

Given the abuse the silver chipped areas would receive I reckon what you have done is fine. I think most people would be happy with the effect you have achieved- even more so when it is your first time attempting it!
