Nice, really nice. How did you weather it like that? I love it - not over the top but enough that it looks realistic and stands out. Great stuff :razz:

Thanks for your comment.

I shaded some areas while I was painting the kit adding few drops of white in basic color. After protective coat with Klear I applied small dots of blue, white, orange, burnt siena and raw umber artistic colors, and then I streaked them down with flat hard brush misted with white spirit (or terpentine). Tamiya weathering sets and finally artistic pigments. Chipping - drybrush on particular areas with lighter shade of basic color and then B pencil. That covers it all.

Chears.

Wow! Really nicely done. Is that OOB or have there been "improvements" made?

Beautiful.....Darko
What about building a diorama, or just having some guys in shorts with Lee Enfields following it?.

Thanks lads for your comments
BWP Unfortunately this was OOB build, I had idea to add interior, but I haven't had proper documentation for it. I am still beginner when it comes to Tanks, and this is my second ever kit in 1/35 scale
This was first

Woodstock Thanks for your question, Yes I plan to build small scene, perhaps just two lads refueling and one standing by watching... Desert scenario ;-) I will also add some baggage on the kit...
