Thanks for sharing and Thank you Vinnie!
It's a most enjoyable reading and you make it look very simple (after all)! Even with the mentioned difficulties it turned out excellent - and I must congratulate you on the color effect that you produced - it looks great!

Looking forward to see the other variants - specially the desert one

Keep up the good work

Skipper

Nice article Vinnie,
Keep writing them, so I can learn to improve mine.
Nice build, just happen to have the kit, and may get around to building it someday, so the article will surely help.

Thanks Vinnie for a nice article. I plan to try out that chipping technique, I really liked the results and seems easier than some of the others I've read. Very nice end product, I can see one of those in my future.

Excellent.!!!

From the artical and pictures...
It is as if it took you 2 days to build, one day on the model and one day on those damn-individual links....

I too, plan on using your tech for chipped paint...

Keep it up!
