Awesome job! I have worked with and in Bradley’s and yours looks just like the real deal.

Not really, the front turn signals should be amber, not red; the .30 cal ammo box holders on the turret bustle should have the lower portions sand, they are the bracket the ammo can sits in and attached to the vehicle; antennas are too short and fat, and should be dark green, not black. Nice seam lines on the underside of the barrel and the side of the TOW maintenance platform too. There should also be irridescent red anti-laser coating on all the optics. As usual, poorly researched and quicly built out of the box by his indentured builders.

you forgot that the Bradley’s arent allowed to rust like that and all of the decals are silvered. Per the usual.

Are you talking about the “bumper numbers” appearing to be lighter on the rear stowage bins? They’re actually printed on a tan background so if the base colour doesn’t exatly match the decal colour, they may appear to be silvered, but really aren’t.

Thanks for all kind comments.

I like them despite the typical MM bashing that your threads always turn in to. The only thing that really stood out to me was the wash blooming around all the bolts on the Bradley. Seems a bit much. The Chally looks pretty cool!!

Thanks for your kind comments, Eric. Lately AI has toned down his weathering work, now tanks are not as dirty and rusty as they used to be. But maybe the bolts on the Bradley here still carries his trademark.
