Meng Bradley Complete

The Bradley is now all finished after sorting out a small base for it and the figure. I used some slightly longer static grass this time which worked well and gave the base a more wild look to the grass. This was painted in various earth, sand and brown tones then dry brushed with lighter colours to give it a dried out summer look. So here's the model depicting a vehilce based at Fort Hood Texas.














So this brings my build total to eleven builds this year (I've still got a secret project to show you but can't until it's published) I've not built that many for a long time so I'm pretty pleased with my output. I just hope I can sustain it next year!

  1. The modern vehicles are not my "cup of thee" but I must say It's a very impressive one and the model is just amaizingly done. With this kind of model you will bring me to the dark side of the modelling : the modern armored vehicles ;-)

  4. Hi Pete, I kindly know, what did you use for the glass periscopes and for the headlights glasses .Thanks for your patience, I have to make the Bradley of Orochi, I know it is not like that of Meng but having bought it for half price and being complete with barrel and tracks, I think it was worth it.
    All the best

  5. Hi Loris for the periscopes I used party scatter which works very well. I just cut suitable sizes and placed them in the periscope openings. For the headlights I just used some little cars lenses. Hope that helps,
