HobbyBoss 1/35 Merkava Mk.IIID

[Dave The Chef]

OK, I'm kinda just putting this out there just for the hell of it, I don't think I put this up on MA before. Started this last December and boy has it been 'fun'. Plenty of mistakes by me mainly although HB have not given enough chain unless it's me being a super spazz-retard and I really shouldn't have stuck all the road wheels and skirts on before painting( :facepalm ) so as I said I'm just putting it out there - SA Dave should get a laugh at least...(just remember that truck I sent you before you do tho Dave :evil: )

After the debacle with the chains one of my Gundam assistants shot himself with his bazooka...

I really should sort a few things out but I may go get me a bazooka first :gogo
:yipee

Love this build mate
BTW I did tell you not to stick on those road wheels before painting

WOW!....Dave....WHAT A BUILD!

How cool is that!
Must have been very time consuming not just the tracks,but those balls and chains....

Absolutely fantastic.
Don't know what else to say.

Greetings,Ron.

So much hard work there, Dave. Looks to have been well worth the effort, mate. Well done.

Wow! Mistakes are part of that learning curve and the modern armor having more stuff, I'd say you did well! :drinks
