Had to start this, could not help myself  001 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr Did not take long to get to this point. Black preshade  005 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr  003 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr Have a set of AFV Club T142 workable tracks on the way for this as the Tammy bandies are not so great Regards, Mark |

Got to love the ease of assembly of Tammy kits - if only they didn't insist on rubber band tracks. Looking forward to the paint!

Thanks gents Base coat built up enough I think. No detail work done yet  001 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr  002 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr  003 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr  004 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr I was gonna paint the mantlet and cupola MG covers Marine green but pics on Prime Portal suggest that the entire vehicles were sprayed sand and what got on the running gear wore off quickly. Should be easy to get contrast with a pinwash with this color Regards, Mark |

Thank you gents Tracks arrived, so I brought this back to the bench  046 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr  047 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr  048 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr 80% done. Crew and stowage, dust, and all the things I have forgotten or not noticed to come Regards, Mark |

Markings and tracks look good Mark! Were the tracks hard to assemble? |

Thanks gents
Leon no they were quick and easy, with a press fit assembly the hardest part is cutting the pieces off the sprue. Watch out for the M4, M26/46 track sets from this outfit, however, they aren't any good
Regards,
Mark

Very nice! That was one of the first armor kits I built when getting back into modeling. Had it in my stash since 1993 or so (just post-Gulf War when Tamiya did those markings).

Leon you're quite welcome sir Dupes thanks and it's a pretty good kit considering the age of parts of it Andy thanks also and I usually like bandies unless, as in this case, they lack detail Got stowage  001 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr  002 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr I think I'll display it on the base to be viewed at just this angle. Crew and dirt to come Regards, Mark |

Love the stowage! Just like you I like to have figures and storages to all of my armor builds. Keep up with the great work!
