Particularly like the imperial guard sniper- is that one of the Tanith 1st models?

Revell 1/72 T-90S "Moooooo shall not pass"
Flashman replied to alxzinbox's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Really nice little work here, just shows what can be achieved with 1/72 within a very manageable project size! -
Fantastic work on one of my all time favourite tanks, really nice and it's good to see the ACAV shield on the turret as well!

Would love to see some kind of diorama around the Falklands- although there was never any direct armoured combat, there's an interesting variety of vehicles on the two sides ranging from Panhards on their side to Scorpions/Scimitars on ours, which did actually see combat in the fire support role.

Very, very professional work here!

King Tiger, Octopus Camo Scheme
Flashman replied to stoohoo's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Well that's certainly an interesting camo scheme, nice work! -
Thanks for all the good feedback chaps, really appreciate it! You can say that again, I came out of Economics Paper 4 a raving lunatic! After 4 essay subjects I wasn't sure my right hand would ever be able to hold a paintbrush again...

So A levels were about as fun as I'd expected but now they've finished I've celebrated the start of the summer with this Tamiya Challenger 1 in Desert Storm scheme, built with the up-armoured skirts- it was a great kit that I have absolutely no complaints about, it also comes with a great commander figure that I have built and will at some point paint and place in the open hatch. Done mostly in Tamiya acrylics with Citadel washes for weathering. I tried to use the washes to build up a multi-shaded impression of sandy dirt on the hull. I believe the kit dates to the 80s originally, and is superbly detailed even regardless of the age- no complaints! Please bear in mind this is only my second ever armour build so please be gentle! Hope you like it. And with my first armour build, a Tamiya T72: -Flash

Is this the Afghan camo?

Great review, looks like a really fun subject to do and must be very nasty to deal with in an urban combat environment!

Trumpeter (01020) 9A52-2 SMERCH-M
Flashman replied to Shermaniac's topic in Work in Progress - Armour
Superb work here, am having great fun with my russian interest watching this and the Scud build! -
There's a build of the Trumpeter Scud in the current issue of Military Modelcraft International- you may like to have a look at that for reference. Also, great work so far, following with interest!

Challenger 2 - Operation Telic 2003 (Tamiya 1/35)
Flashman replied to OwenEldridge's topic in Work in Progress - Armour
Great work so far, I'm currently working on the Tamiya challenger 1 so am looking forward to the painting stage! -
Really good work and weathering- I assume you applied the decals before weathering?
-
Fantastic idea this one, really enjoying what you've done!

Wow- would genuinely have believed that those were the real thing!

Well this has got to be one of the best built and planned builds I've ever seen, great work! Really enjoying this one, and it really does scream for a desert diorama! -
Beautiful work, looks great!

Fantastic work here with the camo, very nice painting indeed!

Thanks both! The highlighting was just done by lots of drybrushing, nothing complicated. -

Cheers k5054nz, my first Guard force was an infantry based one but I fancied doing another, I ended up going down the Armoured Battlegroup route which is great fun and I can highly recommend as something a bit different- the usual ratio of tanks to infantry is basically reversed.
