Mr. T
Well I don't usually do Axis vehicles but I guess an Ersatz M10 is really allied underneath I can go along with that. Especially in Braille scale which really impresses me me because I can see that very good detail in the large pictures that I would otherwise miss on the actual teensy teensy, small model.

Well that's good Bones, I don't typically do allied...LOL!! Pictures help...no worries, it's hard for most people to pick up the braille details even when you are right on top!! I have been know to just take pics at a show to look at the builds when I get home!!  |

Nice guys!! I'm in too...wait, I am the one doing this...LOL!! OK, Cheetos are good and popcorn is right there too, but, this feels like some of those Junior Mints!!! Mmmmm!!
Painting road wheels at the moment. I managed to slap a clear coat down for the decs and weathering. So when is dry, probably tomorrow I will add decs and play with some of the effects stash!!

I am trying Luigi!!  Thanks Roman....it is a tiny one!! LOL!! Bones, It works well, so you can enjoy everything about the show. I like to quickly walk through a section and snap at least 2 pics on each...second one always looks better for some reason. Your right, take you time later to enjoy again!! I wish I could say it was done, alas, not yet. I have some progress pics and will be playing around with more of it tonight. I figure I will be done in a day or so....I think! LOL!! Here is what I have been up to. Decs are on.    The tracks were a bit wonky to install. But they are in. I managed to get a filter on her as well as a pin wash...a little streaking.   I will be getting the tracks dirty and some more weathering to come...almost there! Thanks for swinging by!! |

Looks great T.! What did you use for your filter? Man, ive built 2 1/72 tanks, Tiger and Panther and the tracks were a bit iffy...a BIG BIT!

Hey guys...thanks!
Luigi - Thinking you will do just fine! This washes as you go building up the effect slowly. This only has a filter and one light pin wash. A couple more to go!
Gary - AK's Filter for NATO Tanks (AK-076). Thought it was a good choice on the OD. I thought it worked really well looking from the top two the the last. Softened everything up nicely for starters.

Man that looks great. I messed around with 1/72 armour for a little while and gave up, so big props for your efforts here. I love it!

Agree, it does look very nice and it is hard to tell it's such a small scale

Thanks fellas! I think I will call this one done. A quick fix that I needed to feed the painting and weathering monster.       I am sure there are a few things that could be added, remove and/or changed to improve this little one a bit more if wanted to. I had some fun messing around with this one. These small kits, albeit not the most detailed sometimes, are still great to play with, experiment with and generally work well at filling a void when you need to just build something! Thanks for checking it out!! |

Mr. T
I hate those rubber band tracks and have had nothing but bad luck with them, fortunately for me in 1/35 we have indies for most of the kits now. However, looking at your tracks I can see a true master at work if I could have ever been able to get one in 1/35 to look that good Id still be using them but to see them at 1/72 is just amazing, great job.
