    Stuart Little

    No not the talking mouse , its the M3a1 Stuart light tank from the Zvezda 1/100 snap together range . These diddy kits are a great quickie build between larger projects and like most of their other snap together kits its a very nicely detailed thing . No decals were supplied in the kit so i had to raid the spares box and cut out the white stars from some spare 1/144 us airforce decals , the white stripe being hand painted ( as they probably were in the field ) The olive drab debaters will have a birthday as the various angles I took the pics at has given several different looking tones but i couldnt care less , its a tanky type thing and its green !Click image for larger version

    That's a neat build. Showing it next to the paint bottle really gives the size.

      Nice little build that. Love the shots where the horizontal and vertical plates look like they are different colours. THAT is why colour exactitude is counter productive and bad for your stress levels.....

        You can't really go wrong with the build on those little Zvezda kits but a smashing paint job to top it off!

            Gone be the days when I could build something so small! Kudos on the build-yes, I know they be a snapfit but, you sometimes have to fiddle and with something so small it is easy to make a mess-the paint scheme and weathering look spot on for this scale, you just hint at detail on these scales. Top work Tony, me like it.

              Neat little build, mucker.
              I've just ordered a 1/144 Lavatory LA-5 Russian ww2 fighter.

                Just noticed, your ring is bigger than the turret!

                  Si, certain members have nearly seen it when Tony is kit rooting under the tables at Cosford!.... :flushed:
