Colour The areas on the Slammers Blowers were pained with Army Painter inks as - effectively - everything on their was either pre-painted, self coloured green, or already sprayed by me before I stuck it in position. Some detail was painted in on jerrycan mounts, but not much. There was also some light dry-brushing to bring out detail. Mostly it’s just inks. They were then sprayed with testors Dullkote and some highlights added in Sterling silver Conclusions The tarps are easy and - if you make them yourself - you can get the ‘pushed into spaces’ look that happens with soft items. The baskets work very well and the Brigade stowage is more SF than the Hobby Master stuff and orders of magnitude cheaper, but does need to be painted. Do it: stowage makes a vehicle look lived in!
