Hi,
After building Gundams, Macross and a Jet Plane. Time for me to jump into making a tank. Price Tag is RM41.94 after 40% discount. The Mold looks nice. The Original color "Dessert Sand" I don't like it that much, possibly will customize it. Right now I don't have the experience to build exact replica to the real one. So I will just have fun with this model first ^_^ Hoping to learn how to weathering a tank. Saw many WIP to make a tank .. really great how they make the tank look so real. I seen my elder brother making an M1A1 Abrams when I was young. It's a tamiya with electric gadget (he doesn't color it) to make it move and I played it a lot and maybe break it lol. So making the exact model dedicated to him. Nothing see much on this first post :D

Hi, this project I build so slow, so many small parts have to putty. Here the latest progress.
mix clear red and clear blue to silver (mr. hobby colors) to make purple, lightly spray clear blue on it.
I think i need to repaint the body, I use Mr. Hobby 313 Yellow FS33531, but the color looks so pale and almost grayish look. Considering either use new color or lower the viscosity.
