Stuka pilots on crystal meth are common knowledge by now, but what were these guys smoking?? Nice dio & definitely an eye-catcher! 🙂

@Slavo - The idea was to impress superstitious chinese soldiers with faces of Tigers or Dragons which are very powerful creatures in chinese mythology. I have no idea if it really worked...

Some years ago I've read a documentation about the paintings and they worked not. I remember the army give up the painting then

@Rui S: For the snow I used

Artificial Snow by Deluxe Materials
scalemates.com/kits/..ic-snow-kit--1110926

Artificial Snow by Fredericux Rex
fredericus-rex.eu/de..u5a6dogabru8209gcv64

Vallejo Foam and Snow for the branches
scalemates.com/color..-acrylic-matt--15742

And a mix of baking soda (natron) and Future for the melting snow an the tank on the side of the road

@Norbert - Thanks a lot !

@Torsten - Cool information. I wondered myself for quite some time what effect those paintings had. Somehow I am not surprised that the had no effect 😉 Nonetheless - An interesting idea in military history ...
