Arrrrrggghhh!.......SARGE!....I love youuuu.....

thanks for all the kind words guys. really makes me wanna push my efforts further.

ok update time. got the greaves all painted up.....


and as a bonus, here they are before the black pigment powder is applied....*puke*.....


now all i have to do is spray all the buckles OD green, attach all back brackets, attach ab pad sardine key, add green padding to certain plates etc etc.

watch this space

Damn. What's your secret?? I couldn't paint like that in a year!

<applauds>

Awesome! Nice pattern, nice weathering, not too over the top, great dirtying... just a shame it's a Hudson replica and not an original; I think we'll be able to have a squad of 10 Hudson's at events now!!!

Seriously though, very cool. I'm liking it a lot. You've made me want to post better photos of my armour to see if I can improve my paintwork!

thanks all! all buckles painted and webbing now attached. pics as soon as i finish work tomorrow. ):

right marines (and bugs), here are a couple of pics showing some updates. added the key to the crotch plate, painted all the buckles green, and clipped on the webbing straps to give you a better idea of the finished look. enjoy (i hope)........

That's awesome!

What did you use to paint the skull motif on there? I have been looking for a picture of it I could use for a decoration on some of my work equipment - but no real luck. Nothing that is like a flat image at least, all I find are armor pics.

Does someone mind sharing it with me if they have a flat image?

Anyways ... great work. I like how it turned out!

Looks absoutely amazing......... I hate you! j/k

Seriously great work, now get the rig on and get some shots!

Andy.

Nick-a-tron, what was the graphite powder you used? What is it usually sold for, or rather where am I likely to be able to buy some?

I used Grate polish on my armour, which I was told was what the screen armour had applied to it, but it smears like boot polish so has to be applied VERY subtly. Your armour has a great look to it without the smears!

Arrrrrggghhh!.......SARGE!....I love youuuu.....

i used black MIG pigment powder from the MIG smoke and rust set. these sets can be found in model shops and on ebay. hope that helps

Thanks Nick! Is MIG the manufacturer, or does it stand for something?
