M103A1 HEAVY TANK "I'M DONE!"

M103A1 HEAVY TANK

I know there's weathering to come, but those decals really 'pop out' of the turret.

Yes there will be some, but you have to remember this is a Cold War machine from the 50's. They were kept in excellent condition when not out on maneuvers. So no rust and no chips. Dust and dirt maybe.

Thanks1

I added the remainder of the details to the hull and did some wiring along the way.

I could see it alongside a couple of M41's battling a 1:35 UFO - It's got that sort of 'feel' about it.

Your usual outstanding level Terry! very nicely done!

According to the "experts" the kit barrel is still too short.

Do an "Oddball" and add a length of pipe for the experts!!!!

:laugh:

Tell'em it just came out the shower... :Hiay

Shrinkage... :smack

:rotf I don't listen to experts anyway. I don't care how many "scale inches/feet" it's off. Some of these people can't build anything because it's "not right". It's a conspiricy by Dragon to make them not build anything.
