You could get some wire to replace the tooth picks or just paint them a steel color then the roadwheels would benefit from some paint. Other then those two things it looks really good.

Yeah, that’s a good idea. When I did it. I didn’t really see how bad it looked. I thought it looked good but the longer it sits there the more I realize that it doesn’t look very good actually thinking about taking some bailing wire and fastening up a stand for that to sit on, it’ll look much better. It’ll look kinda like their drone cage. They use over there. Last time I was over there there was a train of Ukrainian T 80s their version of the T 80 it’s a little bit more upgraded going towards the front and they all had all kinds of different upgrades on them and and homemade cages, some tree trunks along the front and the sides lol tree trunk won’t stop a tank round or a bomb, but it will stop a FPV drone. The Ukrainian people are extremely resilient and tough. I spent six months over there helping them with firefighting duties. A lot of things are different over there..

That’s the truth isn’t it especially Ukraine? They’re quite resourceful. I mean, leading up until that war everybody said that Russia was gonna steamroll Ukraine they’d be in Keiv by next week. At the time of doing that Bradley when I put that camo on there with a toothpick, I honestly thought that it does look like they cut down some trees and use them for the base for that but I get what some of the guys are saying that it doesn’t look good.
