Sorry for the time delay on this..........these kits are good quality with no problems but the fit is not quite TAMIYA standard. They are also very fiddly with some particularly small parts. Finally, down this end of the world they are way over priced -$70.00 kit AUD before postage, probably...

Thanks MP, I do most of my base coats this way. The MKV male and the T-72B3 were both done with this kind of base coat. All were greenas this works best with dark base coats. I agree, you can't leave it monochrome or it just looks to plain and life is way more random than that. :good:

....and the trouble is there arn't any offensive parts if you are a normally operating human. :oldguy:

Great work Paul! :tens:

Welcome Mikolaj!:dude:

Just fantastic! :tens: I love the weathering you have done on this, perfect amount in the 'Goldilocks zone'.

Hey Paul, I have been collecting 1/16 for some time but I am waiting to begin that scale madness at the appropriate time(once I have my back room completed or move to a new place with one ready to go).

Hey James, thats a big bird. if you want a good way to tackle the bare metal see my post on the Razorcrest (Mandolorian 's spaceship). https://modelersalliance.org/threads/update-6th-november-1-72-razorcrest-from-the-mandalorian-completed.156618/ Its one way of doing it nice and weathered, as...

Ordered one of these from BNA - again, didn't realise that anyone had released a 1/16 late model N. I have been hoping for one of these in 1/16...great surprise from Trumpeter!

Great photos Paddy! Thanks for posting them. I have always loved the MkVb in its desert cam with the Vokes filter - looks mean! I intend to do a painting of one at some point. In the meantime i always loved this photo for a ref on weathering a spit in desert/ Med cammo. Panel lines clearly...

Welcome aboard, hope you enjoy yourself here as everyone is very freindly with no judging. :vgood:

These are the 3 I have recently purchased from TEMU/ ALI EXPRESS. Excellent price (about $35 USD), plenty of extras and the real seller for me is the pressure adjust valve under the nose which allows you to set the pressure high on your compressor, then dial it and adjust it up and down easily...

looks spot on!

Thank you for having me Gentleman, another interesting and fun get together. I will try to make it all the way to the end on the next one.:bigrin: :ro:

This looks fantastic! I really love the weathering and finish you have achieved on this build - exceptional :tens:

great story John and what a bonus that you actually have photos and the dioramas :tens:......... I think that SAS jeep was my second Tamiya kit.

I often wonder what started other modellers on their journey and how different their stories would be from mine, so I thought a post on this might be interesting for everyone to read and discuss. :hmm: So I will start, to give everyone an idea of what I mean in case there are a few who are...

I really love this build as it is, so I hope you decide to leave it be - its that good :tens:

I love that box art! ❤️

That figure looks great and the yellow on the tank is perfect! :vgood::coolio2:
