The Chaos

Hello finisched, last days, have fun.

A well and truly smacked gob.  I take it this particular tank was a gate guard or memorial that has since been taken to become a street artist canvas?

I suppose it could have broken down and abandoned during an abortive attempt to quell a revolt and has since been taken over by the local graffiti artists ?

Good work Chaos.

This photo was taken in an Iraqi boneyard after Gulf War 2.  The graffiti, done by US troops is much less artistic than on your build.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

They obviously only had a black spray can.  ;D

Unless the guy in/behind ? the turret is a well over 6 foot then it makes you realise how squat the T-62 is

I thought I'd commented last night? :unsure:

But, probably, didn't, as there was a minor medical emergency last night with my eldest daughter (she's fine, so no concerns ... now).

Absolutely excellent build & finish, Chaos! :bow: :bow:

If you were lucky, you might have been able to get a can or two of Sand from the QM.

Been there, done that, was almost as hard as getting CR123A 3v lithium batteries from the gov't credit card store run by a well known oilfield logistics company at Balad AB/LSA Anaconda.

Fantastic, brilliant work.  :bow: :bow: :bow:

Bizzarely, this is straight out of a dream I had. :o. There had been an invasion where I live that had been repelled, there were knocked out tanks in the fields that had been grafittid.  Forgot all about it until you posted this.  :o
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
