    Great video and build. This seems to be a nice kit. 👍I was in a radio platoon (1st battery of a rocket artillery bataillon) during my military service in 1986/87 and we had such a radio truck. The vehicle was called "Funkkoffer". Our truck was painted in NATO olive green. The three colour camouflage wasn't so common at that time.

      I use ak netting type 1 that I paint olive drab on one side and russian green on the other. The use HO trains scale bushes for the foliage. I really don't like most live foliage products and I prefer just using thine strips of paper painted and crumpled up to look like the steps of canvas they hange.

    'Rick'!!!! Thanks a Lot!! I think you know that I'm building my Leopard 2 AVLB, though I have NOT painted it in NATO colors yet...because I was buying ( and Still WAITING ) for my putty-mask to arrive. Point-being...seeing you and another fella just "free-hand" paint the camo, Not worrying about over-spray of different colors ( brown and black ) kinda makes me wonder.... "Shoot, why am I waiting for...just Paint da Darn TANK!!" Showing how you get close-in to the model also helps with the lower setting of the airbrush!!! Although, I have not painted the tank yet, I did paint the bridge portion.....but in Possible UKR color camo...there I HAD to use masks for the "digital camo" that they are using for the Bradleys ( not sure of their Leo2 and Abrams )...maybe you can give me a little hind-sight of Their camo patterns...is Ukraine keeping the NATO color...OR...their own colors?? Again, Thanks for the posting......off to do some painting!!!!

      Ha.. I lovevpainting with airbrush. It's just finding the sweat spot of right dilution and psi.. on the Ukrainian stuff. From what I've seen, they have several colors. I was told although I can not verify that if it arrived in nato camo.. it stayed that but they did get vehicles that looked like a Russian green color and I heard that some stuff arrived in desert and they're painted in the digital. I'm getting ready to do a Ukrainian leo 2 and I just finished my leo 2 avlb, iguana, that I made all the upgrades for it to be the I service version.
