I posted this over on HissTank awhile back, some of you may have already seen it.
I really like the new HISS Tank. I plan on getting 4 or 5 of them so they can function as a combat unit, but I want a unit for every type of terrain setting, you know, like jungle/swamp, arctic, desert, urban, but there is no way I can afford to buy or display 20 of these. So what I did was sprayed the main body flat black then glued magnets to the inside in certain areas. Then traced the armor lines onto a sheet of tin ( cuz it's magnetic, aluminum is not. ) and cut them out. Next I traced the armor lines onto a printout of digital camo, cut them out and attached them to the tin with double-sided and regular tape. Now this HISS has the ability to go from Night-Ops/Urban ( all black ) to any type of camo pattern I make for it.
The driver's suit was made all black and his gear is made ready for jungle/swamp missions.
I'll pick the rest of the unit up whenever I can find them on sale and then finish the various camo plates and post pics them all together in their various terrain settings.
