BMP-2 - build log
First up, the wheels. Further down the line I'll try to imitate wear of the rubber. Also, had some leftover burnishing fluid that I used on the PE.
BMP-2 sideskirts contain foam to improve buoyancy. They also get terribly bit up on the battlefield. I wanted to show that without the need of PE parts.
First, I cut them into pieces, to mount only parts that are present on the reference photos.
Next, I thin the plastic with a Dremel, so I can bend and form it, to reassamble dents and punctures in thin sheets of metal.
PE parts should give better effects, but this way I can save some bucks.
Test fit
Part of the sideskirt glued to the upper hull.
