The Flying Dutchman - YPR 765 of Serbian Gendarmerie - paint job


December update: masking and paint job

To describe this process, i would modify quote from Trainspotting:
Choose to paint black and brown areas
choose to mask them properly
choose to spray over green paint
choose to modulate the paint
choose to remove the masks achieving desired camouflage
Choose your future. Choose life . . . But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life: I chose something else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got oposite proces way harder with multiple possible errors to occur?

Choose painting green and making individual masks for each brown and black surface...

And after removal of the masks, some additional touch-ups with a fine brush and valejjo acrylics. This was a good time to learn that the whole process could have been achieved with hand brushing, as these colors are excellent for that purpose.


During this stage, additional equipment was installed, and a fine coat of gloss varnish was applied. Following steps will include dot filtes and pin-wash, with minor corrections included.
