Modern Armor completed this year

[M1Carbine]

Here is a bunch of Modern era stuff I completed during the year.

Egyptian T34/85 9Academy) Painted with MMP acrylics. I went a different rout for tracks and tried the Tankcraft 3d printed tracks.......they are awesome.


















Next I tackled Tamiya's M60A1 with reactive armor.


















Then it was time for Tamiya's Tiran 5. Another gem! T-rex tracks used for this project.

More great stuff!

NOW you are speaking my language!!! From an armor builder you really did a great work on those! I love the base for the M60... did you build it too?

[M1Carbine]

Thank you Kyle

Andy, yes I built the base. Pink foam board, balsa, Vallejo ground effect products.

That’s a great looking trio that you have here! All look great, but I think I gotta choose the M60A1 as my favorite of this batch.

[M1Carbine]

You got it 406

Carlos, thats one of my favorites as well.

Great group of Armor you created. I really like the look of the stowage on the Tiran 5 and M60

Thank you handiabled.

All three of these are good looking builds Bob. I'm really liking what I see in these 3D printed tracks and they seem to assemble up easy enough and take to handling well.

That M60 with the reactive armor is simply a beauty. Well painted up and weathered and the extra armor adds a bit more of a WOW factor to it.

Beautiful work on all.

I love these, that M60 is SWEEEET! Beautiful work.

My favorite is the Tiran 5, What a great job you did on that, the details and the weathering are spot on. How was your experience with the TRex tracks?

[M1Carbine]

Thanks Brian. It was a bear finding the Tamiya kit but located one on evil bay. Still a beautiful kit.

Fantastic builds in all three, Bob. The weatheting and details are incredible. I am so out of touch with hobby stuff...3d printed tracks?
