I decided to brush this one off and finally complete it. It had been seating gathering dust for almost a year. I will post the latest photos soon!

Coming together nicely Mel, going to make for an excellent burnt-out wreck when you're all said and done.

One last update for the day. Following Scrathmod technique (I think). I sprayed on a mixture of Tamiya Flat Brown with a few drops of Tamiya Flat Black. This is intended to lay the foundation for the burned/rust color. I think the next step is the Lifecolor paints? If anyone has a suggestion on how to best do this please jump in! The intended purpose of this exercise is to hopefully recreate newly destroyed/burned out tank that will be placed on a Eastern Front diorama. I'm still not sure of the lay-out. Mel
I have never build a burned out vehicle and have acouple old satsh kits that are canidates for this teatment so I will be following to see how you do this.

I'm still looking and the very last picture is looking like the real thing, maybe you can find someone who has some leftover pieces of track to show sticking out of the ground at one end or the other, maybe a couple of wheels shot off to cover for the lack of ant tracks. I can fully appreciate when you say things didn't turn out as planned I have a lot of that and the lessons learned which never seem to end.

Good job with the tracks making it really look like a battle damaged vehicle.

I might have a set of rubber-band KV tracks in my spares box, if your interested let me know and Ill dig in there and get a picture of them for you. If you like them we will have to get them to you.
