Tamiya Mk.iv Male Tank 1/35

The side sponsors are done and on they don't glue on they use a rubber grommet system to attach them leaving them removable for access to the innards the top deck attaches the same way. Tracks went together very easily which was a nice surprise.

I'm not sure but the parts are there to build without the motor but nothing in the instructions about them.

I have a few coats on, so far the brush painting seems to be going ok not the smoothest of jobs but hopefully I can get away with it on this.

Looking good Dave don't worry too much about the smoothness it will help with the weathering

[Guest]

Paint lobs on tanks weren't always the smoothest. Don't worry about trying to achieve a smooth look , as a matter a fact try to do the exact opposite.

Painting track links o_O

This is progress so far I am not used to doing washes etc. so it's experimental but interesting and the gloss varnish helps removal of any big mistakes. Any opinions/advice welcome.
