The Browning is painted then assembled. Using Vallejo Gun Metal. And then going over it with a silver pencil.
The mount is painted OD, The box of shells is a darker shade of Olive Drab
The side rails are then mounted on each side of the turret. They were carefully removed from the sprue as they are quite flimsy and fragile. Fortunately they came off the sprue ok, no bends.
Next the gun mount that rolls around the ring when in use.
Then attached in the forward firing position.
The Browning is complete, grip handles attached, they are brown. Belt fed shell canister is attached.
The .50 is placed on the rear deck for now. Will do some shading over the base coat/
Some faded OD is misted over the top of the armored car. Hard to tell under the fluorescents.
Dry brushing over the raised portions with the Faded OD with a couple of drops of white.
Then over again with a darker shade of od.
next up a clear coat, then decals,
more to follow..
