Jan Peters
Welcome mates

Jan Peters
Made a careful start. Parts are a mixed bag, some very nicely done, some a bit crude and oversized.

Jan Peters
Any thoughts on how to make the anti radar material on the snorkel?

Matti Thomaes
Can't help you there Jan, I didn't even know there was anti-radar material on the snorkel...

Jan Peters
I had a go at it, looks more crude in the pictures then it looks in real life, might do some fine tuning later

Shaun Rosario
WOW this is awesome!!!!!

Mathias Decommere
Perfect... Just perfect. Love it! 👌🏻

Spanjaard
Saw the picture, and I knew it was yours immediately. Another fantastic dio in your collection!

Olivier
When West meets West in the East...
Very nice window on the international weapon trade.

I am speechless (as always when watching Neuling's dios and photos...). Chapeau bas!

Jean-Michel Tilquin
Once again a dynamic reportage from Neuling walking through (recent) history!

Neuling
Thank you mates! - Olivier and Jean-Michel, I found the reference picture in the booklet "Sword in the sand - U.S. marines in the gulf war" by Tony Engelhart & Pat Foran (Concord Publications Company).

Michael Kohl
Bull´s-eye-hit. Incredible. Insane camo painting on the uniforms. Stunning photography. You hit the nail on the head again.

Rui S
Another Great dio 👍

Harald Besold
Looks real. Insanely realistic!

Ben M
Photorealistic and it tells a story.

hiveloc
That "chocolate chip" camo is spot-on!

Neuling
Thank you, Harald, Ben and hiveloc!

Mr James
Agree with hiveloc. That desert camo pattern is so very well done. I'm thinking of the hours spent on this figure alone, not to mention the rest of the masterpiece.

Neuling
Thanks a lot Mr James, also for the many kind likes. Much appreciated from you. - The American uniform desert camouflage of the 90s was a challenge, but modeller friendly. With the new digital camouflage patterns however I cannot cope. Some trial and error, but no satisfying result yet.

Michael Kohl
Maybe this technique might work:
Uniform base coat. Then application of the various colors that make up the rest of the pattern with a very stiff brush (cheapest bristle brush) that is dipped perpendicular into a very shallow puddle of color. Stipple off as much color so that you are left with individual dots from each bristle. Then tap the figure.
I used this method for my scale 1:72 canadian soldiers and was quite happy with the overall effect.

Neuling
Michael, I watched your album again, picture 115 shows the uniforms well, for scale 1/72 a very good effect. I´ve tried your method now for the figures of my new diorama "Baqubah 2006", important seemed to me avoiding to pick up to much and to wet paint with the brush.

Michael Kohl
Nice to read that my suggestion worked for you too. I should have added this information, but obviously you figured it out yourself. Yes, pick up small amounts only of undiluted paint. I am anxious about the result.

Desert Marlin
Excellent work as always! 1990?

Neuling
Thank you, Desert Marlin! Operation Desert Storm 1991.

Neuling
Congrats!
