Dystopian wars: 1:1200 'The Black Wolf'

So the story goes that the Black Wolf is stolen secret technology of the Russians, and other very Red-Octoberish plot details. What better misdirection than painting it a different colour?
Therefore my Black Wolf is green. See what you think.
I hadn't quite done enough coats of micro-sol to take the sheen off the skull and crossbones decal when I took this

Front on

A nice shot from above
The base colour was Secret Weapon washes' 'Baby Poop', with Vallejo 'Smokey Ink' as the main complimentary colour. The hazard decals are from veni vidi vici, the skull from an old Macross 'Roy Fokker Special' kit :)
