Tamiya Universal Carrier Mk.II 1:35

April 26, 2016 By Francis Porter

The carrier assembled and finished in its basic camouflage scheme prior to adding the decals and weathering the vehicle.

Dry brushing with Buff paint was used to give a faded paint effect

Untitled-15
Extra stowage was used to hide ejection marks and cover heavy detail on parts.
A pin wash of dark brown paint brought out the grill detail on the engine cover.

Untitled-13
Pin washes followed by dry-brushing resulted in small rivet detail being visible. Scratches/wear was reproduced using a fine tip roller ink pen in a random pattern.

Setting the Scene

The finished model was set against a scenic background having added the crew figures. As the crew of the carrier come up against a bullock on a narrow path and try to get it to move, a bemused bullock stares back and refusing to move holds its ground.
