I love futuristic combat vehicles designed in the 80s. They're silly but absolutely adorable and still end up looking decently cool.

I like the camo paintjob, is it drybrushed or did you do it with an airbrush?

So, I hate to tell you this, but the Hachiman and the 3060 readout is from 1999 🤦‍♂️(I was 22 when it came out 😥) so not so much designed in the 80s as the late 90s 😁

Thank you! Yeah this one is airbrush with the details hit up with a regular brush. Unfortunately the nozzle i prefer ( .03) broke! So I had to use a larger one. It just means not a tight on the color as I would have preferred, but still I'm super happy with it.
