Hi people

This is 1/35 Trumpeter. Yet another group build ... gonna build out of box.

Lots of PE Parts ...

Progress is a bit slow ... hope to pick up speed in coming week...

Some nice detail...especially the canvas.

[Guest]

Looks very nice.

I like the texture on the turret, it's ideal for a nice chipping or weathering effect!

Some nice detail...especially the canvas.

very nice start to her, as both Aaron / Polux have said ,very good for chipping and weathering

a shame more kits dont have such nice detail, to the sock around the gun

It has been a while since any update, but here is a sneak peek on my slowwwwww progress ...

The green is a bit patchy, with some whites on it ... it will all blend in during the weathering stage... ohh .. i only chipped the yellow colored portion ... will chip the green colored portion later tomorrow

More work in progress pics later in the weekend ... gotta go sleeeeeep now.

Very nice Wong. Hope I have addressed you correctly.

Very interesting as my next few projects are armoured vehicles although in Afganistan also my first. So hope to pinch a few tips here.

[Guest]

Excellent paintwork so far looking really good!

[Wong Ryan]

Thank you for the comment people ... here are some progress pics

I primed the tank with black ...

some close up pics ... some areas need to be cleaned up later

The tank has side skirting/fenders, that are painted black. Any suggestions on how to weather black colored surface?

Thank you.

Coming along nicely mate, the chipping is jaw dropping and looks very realistic.

[Guest]

I`m with the rest of the guys, this is excellent, really looking forward to seeing more of this build

[Wong Ryan]

Slowly but steady progress ... air brushed the side skirt, and test fitted. Also installed the wheels, with "baking powder" as mud ...

Next step will be a coat of future, and decals followed by wash and filter.

Cheers ...

Tracks on ... mud effect later .... time to catch some zzzzzzzzzz first ...

The base is magnificent. With the weathering will be a masterpiece
