Thanks @lgardner, @uscusn, @fiveten
Thanks so much for your comments. I got quite a bit done on the BMP today: Repaired that obvious paint issue and worked towards the finishing. I added vision blocks from metal foil painted with thinned blue enamel. I also added a Russian antenna on the vehicle. Left is dullcote and some final weathering.
I really think I did a good job. Frankly, I would not have bought this kit if it were not I was kit-starved when in Vienna over Summer. Due to a lockdown installed in Belgium (my home country) over August, we decided to stay two weeks longer. And so I purchased this ancient kit with molds dating back from the stone age...
What do you think? Menacing isn't it? 😀
Sorry for the lousy quality, I'll make better pics but wanted to share this with you already, it's bed-time here!
