U.S.M.C. M1a1 WarPig

Post by RedDevil66 »

It has been awhile since I have posted any pictures. Here is my Academy M1a1 Abrams WarPig. I know this kit is not accurate, but it gave me a chance to work on my weathering skills and try some anti-skid. Thanks for looking!

Wow! This is awesome. I will definitely have to try an armor kit one day! The paint on the figures is especially jaw dropping, very clean crisp lines!

Nice!
What do you use for the anti-skid?Pigments and pigmento fixer? Seems a good idea!

The anti-skid is fine model railroad sand. I mixed white glue, water, and acrylic tan paint. I brush this mixer where I wanted, then applied the sand. Happy New Year!
