OK, here are the photo's (quite a lot, really);




























Tomas the Tanker went AWOL for a bit, then I found him hiding out in a cupboard;








Obviously not perfect but all constructive criticism & other comments welcome, as usual.

(Note: The wheels are those supplied with the kit, which I intend to swap out with resin at a later date - when I can get them from my dealer.)

:cheers:

Noice.

Tyres look OK to me.  Is it weighted ones you are after?
Thats something car modellers rarely bother with.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Thanks, Fred! :thumbsup:

And, yep, that's what I'm talking after. Armour tends to be a bit heavier than cars & the bulged tyres, although not obvious, do make a difference to the appearance. ;)

Superb work  :bow:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Looks good.  A little too "clean" for an operational machine though.  Needs more dust!   :thumbsup:

It's the little things that make a model.  The ones you don't necessarily consciously notice.
The six red bow shackles for example...

An artifact of the Testors Dull-Kote I sprayed her with. Before that you could barely see the markings for the Tamiya "Flat Earth" I'd sprayed in (I think) a rather effective driving dust pattern.

They're the things I think about when building a vehicle, the personal touches - like the shackles & the 2 water bottles in the stowage.
