Erhan,

Great to see you back, but ashamed of you for staying away so long. If you hadn't noticed, I have been doing a build of this kit for a while at SS-25 TOPOL (RT-2PM).

You have done a very respectable job on this rather intense kit. Since I personally know what you have had to go through, I commend you. I have followed several Bogs of this kit but yours is one of the first to be shown complete. Congratulations and well done!

Cheers,
Jan

Erhan,

My original TOPOL postings were in the Braille Scale forum but got moved after some system problems here, so I left it where it was. Once I get to the finishing stage, I will start a new Blog in the Braille forum.

Cheers,
Jan

Welcome back, Erhan. First time I've seen one of these monsters built. Very imposing vehicle and great job. Just wondering why only the missile tube is camouflagued? All the ones I see on google are either all green or three colours. Then again, I can see how painting this thing can be quite difficult.

Regards,
AJ

I very much like what you did with the model! Also let me say that your blog is very cool too.
I have it on my tab as one of the modelling sites that I will frequent in case I need inspiration

Hi AJ,
Before I painted green everywhere. After I painted missile tube (camouflage). With airbrush and freehand. It was very tiring. And then yellow paint was inadequate for MAZ trucks. Stayed that way



Hi Zare, thank you. I wish Miniafv blog would be helpful.
Braille Scale modeling is not preferred in Turkey. I want to be loved this scale. The largest SMALL SCALE ..

Congratulations Erhan, it looks great. Maybe it's a shame you couldn't quite face doing the whole camouflage job over the truck, and with hundreds of kits in your stash, I suppose you won't go back and do it later...?
I notice you did just build the entire chassis and then airbrush it. That's what I would have done seems much quicker, and nice to get the plastic assembly out ofthe way as much as possible before painting.
