Another Black HISS

I LOVE the new HISS - especially once it's painted. This is the heavy tank Cobra has always needed. The telescope mechanism is interesting, but I really plan on keeping it down all the time. It just looks so menacing.







I'll actually do some more pics tomorrow of just the paint job - I was losing the light this evening.

It's obviously nothing fancy. I gave the body a quick coat of light gray and then followed with black that way I could do some light wear-and-tear and have the lighter color show through.

I masked off some sections of the canopy to keep the original reddish brown as evocative of the old "glass" canopy. Lastly, painted the bogeys and that's about it.

*Added more pics on page 3

That's the custom idea everyone should be doing, to be honest. I did it with my two, third one coming in the mail. Destroy the desert scheme! Nice re-paint

Yes, Python Patrol! And who's going to be the first to paint one of these as a Septic Tank?
