 Post subject: 25A Roadblock, in camo tee..(with WIPs)

Hi guys,
I hope you'd let me share my default 25A RB repainted in camo pattern (a nod to 80's woodland scheme) with a boonie hat (instead of his clunky looking helmet).

Some WIPs 1st..

Don't mind the RAH Outback I painted in camo, my boss' husband commissioned to do repaint it in the same scheme as it is already yellowish after years of storage.

Base coat of t-shirt..

First few strokes for the camo..

2nd layer of paint..
Image

Final set..

Here he is finally...
I decided to give him a t-shirt instead of letting him run around in his sando. He wouldn't look right, I guess he looks a little unpolished.
He's got a ripped-at-the-sleeves camo t-shirt with ARMY drawn across the chest, and repainted his elbow band and gloves black.
Didn't bother repainting his pants and boots. :-D

Something as an in-joke..
CHEF at the back, instead of CHIEF..(being an Army Chef)
Image

Real men wear boonies..
Image

Something more modern, a better looking machine gun.

Thanks for looking.
Comments/feedback are more than welcome. :-D

Nice job on painting the camo. Looks great!

I like everything except the writing. I'd say either go with a printout or leave it off.

I agree with Jfak the writing detracts from the nice camo.

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm seriously considering using letter cutouts so it would look better (the ARMY print).

If the only thing that sucks with this custom is the ARMY print, then maybe I could paint all over it or replace it with decals as suggested by JFAK075 and sgcaper. :-D
