In Iraq templates for cutting the armoured plate were cut from plywood and images show these scattered around the production area. Normally i would achieve this by applying oils over an acrylic layer and adding a streaky effect with a course brush, however this time i thought i would give the wood effect decal from Uschi.
First the parts were spray painted with a gloss light flesh colour before the decal was cut roughly to shape and applied.
These decals are very good, they are quite fragile due to them being quite thin but once dry the final look is magnificent and looks just like a part cut from a sheet of plywood.
