Correctomundo Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 So this is just a "quicky" before the new Marines arrive to become Imperial Fists. At some point I might have exaggerated the mud splattering, I know... but, nevertheless, hope you like it! Oh, and I'm thinking about building a diorama for this one, so people can see where all the mud comes from... http://i.imgur.com/RAcOlmo.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremy1391 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 As a fella that's spent quite a bit of time in armored vehicles I would say that you didn't overdo it with the mud splatters, can't tell you how many times my M109A6 came out of the field looking like a mud sculpture lol.

Xenith Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Looks great, but on the front panel, the mud is too uniform, it's not heavier closer to the tracks, or the front of the vehicle, but equally distributed in uniformly sized spots. It kind of looks more like a camo pattern to me than mud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Chaplain Ryld Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Great work mate. Look forward to seeing the diorama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tygwyn Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I'm with Jeremy on this one, it takes literally HOURS to wash the mud off our WARRIORs at the end of deployments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Benigno Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Impressive weathering job! It's about 50% nurgle :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I can also confirm that there is no such thing as "too much mud" on a tank that has been out in the field. It takes a day for a tank crew to fully clean a Leopard 2 (inside and out) because the dirt gets absolutely everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Correctomundo Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 Yes guys, you're right. I am in the military myself (although not in a armoured vehicle unit) so I should know better. ;) Thanks for your feedback anyways! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kind of looks more like a camo pattern to me than mud. Very good point but I also think that there's too little mud on that front panel. To have a visual example, here's a picture of a Leopard 2 tank from the Swiss Armed Forces that has been driving around for a couple of days or so.
