airfixpeter Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) Just finished this one and I don't normally do the kit figures but here's my effort this one's my first airbrushed tank mainly using tamiya paint as its the only type that I can get on with. I will leave the rest to you Edited November 28, 2017 by peterairfix Spelling error 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill.B Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Personally I'd like to see the tank in a more 'well used' and dirty condition, but that's just my taste, anyway it's a great diorama! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullbasket Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I know I'm nit picker, but there are a couple of problems with this build. Ben Nevis, I believe, was a Mk.Vll, not a Mk.ll. Mk.ll's had the 2pdr gun, not the 75mm. Also, it may be the lighting that you've used, but it's made the tank appear to be grey coloured. And the name Ben Nevis should be on the side, just above the serial number. Apart from my nit picking, you've done a good job on an old kit.

Its probably me not taking much notice of the instructions as I am not much of an armour builder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullbasket Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 We've all been there. I've glued parts in place before realising that something else has to go on first. Teach me to read the instructions first! John. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
