I TRIPLE DOG DARE YA!

Oh yeah!!!

I'm following along. . .

LOL! I would say that there's no chance in hell that I'm doing Berlin Camo, but actually I do have my eye on a MENG mk.10 with that option that I'd love to do.

You and me both… I’ve been wanting to build a Chieftain in the Berlin Brgade camouflage scheme, ever since I first became aware of them. Now see in the Ferret and FV.432 in the scheme as well, with the Takom and Airfix kits of those subjects now available along with that Meng Chieftain… I believe that the Scimitar also was painted in that scheme as well. It’s just soooooo unique!

I know what you mean, it is a cool scheme isn't it - it's be great to see you have a go at one Carlos. The FV.432 is on my list too. I do have an AFV club Scimitar but I'll be converting mine into one used during the Falklands War.

It doesn't seem.all that hard to do. Paint the base coat white. Square mask for each color. Start with the brown; mask the white, mask the brown, do next color, etc...

Yeah, yeah, yeah... easy said than done

Looked around over at scalemates and found this useful review on the Takom Chieftain Mk. 10 kit. Explains a lot of helpful ideas and how to paint the Berlin Brigade scheme.

Now you’ve got me putting the Takom Chieftain Mk. 10 on my watch list.
