Cobra Night Watch Bradley Fighting Vehicle and M113 APC

So I don't have the mad skillz like some of you cats, but with that said, I don't think these came out too bad.



This is still a work in progress, still need some stickers and on the APC, I'm going to paint the packs a darker shade of blue with either red or black trim.

Speaking of darker blue, I wish now I had used a darker blue. I "tested" a couple different colors, compared to the black and the darker ones I thought wouldn't show through. The blue I did use ended up lighter on plastic than the "test" on poster board. Oh well...



I will say that I'm happy with the way the camouflage came out, not to brag or anything. It looks better in person than how the pictures captured it.



Like the title says, it was for my Night Force figures, but with the blue, I guess it'll work for any Cobra.

a darker blue would have been better but your stripe work is awsome. very nice job on both of them! i have not worked my way up to camo yet but when i do, i'd like to do something similar to yours.

Good paint job, take a picture at night where the Night watch and their Vehicle belong!

Very nice - the camo is sweet. I understand the pictures never looking as good as in person...

A darker blue should be used.

Or even black plus grey camo. It's a bit too bright for my eyes.
