Name of Build: The Mini Stomper
Kit manufacturer: Tamiya
Scale: 1:25
Description
I pictured this Mini in my mind a while back and had to build it in scale. I bought the Tamiya kit and began kit bashing and robbing some Warhammer bits out of my parts bin. After assembly I began the painting process. I started with black primer and then applied Vallejo Red acrylic paint. I also used Vallejo flat white as well. The graphics on the rear of the Mini was airbrushed through a mesh material from the bag oranges come in. Vallejo Blue was used for the color. The yellow stripes were masked and airbrushed as well. I then applied different types of weathering including chipping, washes etc. Various MIG Ammo products were used along with some dry brushing on the rear engine and the gunnery mounted on the roof. This build was a lot of fun and it is a great feeling seeing my vision come to life. Thanks for checking it out guys! Good luck to everyone in the contest.
