That tank commander looks tremendous!  I like your custom officer too. I saw it a while back and didn't say anything. Great work!

The amount of detail I put into these military customs is painstaking. I'm glad you like it tho!

So I suppose the you painted the camo-pattern by hand? Head, helmet, uniform and gloves look superb!

Thankfully not the camo, but the plate carrier and helmet are hand painted. And a lot of the very minor details on the vehicle are as well. Some of it even hand constructed from polystyrene tubes/sockets, and 3D printed parts.

For example, I really did not like the idea that the commander on the BUSK Bradley was completely unarmed. I added a pintle mount for an M-240. Both are completely removable and can be stowed in the storage area of the turret. The mount is fully articulated as well.

So I'm undertaking a project to bring Gar Saxon to life on TVC/3.75" scale. I'm going to be using a combination of 3D printed parts (from an Etsy seller), Joytoy Torso, and Mandalorian Supercommando lower to make him. All the assembly, paint, and detailing will be made by me.

Here's some preliminary photos:

Thank you so much! I always played with the idea of buying a 1/18 scale Bradley when I saw one on shelves at TARGET. You have one of the best selected collection I know. And your new Mandalorian project sets another milestone here. Those printed resin parts are of exceptional quality and the paint job you did on them is tremendously good. The result looks outstanding! Wow!

That isn't my Mando, but I will be posting mine soon. WIP status for now until I get my parts:

Sorry, I misunderstood your description then. Well, that body you prepared there is a promising kit-bash for the resin parts. Looking forward to those printed parts to arrive! Thanks for clarifying it.
