So, something of a SNAFU in this weeks painting plans. I had primed up 30 some odd vehicles for this week, but, I am guessing that I somehow failed to wash all of them. So after I had spray primed them I sat down to get started and as I picked up one of the APCs, the primer started to flake off. Now thankfully it did not happen to all of them (13 kept their primer) but it happened to enough of them to hamper my weekly production.
So, I spent some time this week stripping the affected vehicles and possibly some vehicles that were not impacted, better safe than sorry. The end result is that I only have the 13 vehicles pictured here ready for this Saturday.
These are mostly Brigade Model vehicles. The two APCs are from Alternative Armies. The big APC was the test subject for the camo pattern, but when it came to painting the rest of the vehicles I flipped the streaks to run lengthwise along the vehicles. The colours were inspired by some classic GW camo styles, I just went a little brighter/lighter with the green.
