Jim Wasley Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Seen so many great builds of this tanks thought I would have a go,not in the class of many I have seen but this is my best and I'm happy with it,Painted with acrylics weathered with pastels and oils,build was very easy as I have found the Meng kits all this way.Cheers. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackMax12 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Looking good Jim. Weathering is right on. Yes this Meng kit was pretty easy but the tracks weren't fun. Lloyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScootyPuffJunior Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 You've done a great job on the Whippet. I've built the Takom version and I have the Meng version in my stash and I'm looking forward to working on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
