    M3A1 Lee 1/35 Scale, I love kits.

    At last I'm calling this done, the only thing I've missed is the medals painting.

    Been a learning curve with the resin, no longer put off from doing so in the future there will be more.

    Thanks to those who followed and commented.

    Some photos.

      That is brilliant John. The simple composition is spot on. You should be more than happy with what you've achieved here.

        Absolutely brilliant, love the water splashing up from the entry into it.

                    A most awesome finish Mr Race

                    You’ve got the splash from the tank going in just right…..a very impressive scene :thumb2:

                      That has come out very nicely, the water especially — you’re braver than me, tackling that

                      Just one small thing: the M3 Stuart was the light tank, this is an M3A1 medium, so you may want to change the title to “M3A1 Lee”

                        Thanks J, understood , I'll ask Ian to change the title :thumb2:

                        I was terrified that the resin would go through the slightest gap on the tape.

                          Absolutely Stunning JR you never disappoint my friend like the splash water effects as well as the build. The committee reached out to me and said to give this to you. Well done Commander Race.

                            It's all been said JR, absolutely bl**dy fantastic.
                            Well done Sir.
                            Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                              A most excellent result Mr JR. All the good words have been used already, so I will just be repeating every one else.
                              Changed the title for you as requested.
