Paul A H Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I reckon it's about two-and-a-half years or so since I last finished a model and about 12 months since I last used my air brush, but sometimes a break (of not from the hobby then at least from building) does us all good. That said, it was getting to the point where I had to stop and think what I was doing, as I'm a tad rusty to say the least. In typical Tamiya style, this kit builds like a dream, with no dramas or issues. Paint was a mixture of Mr Hobby and Tamiya, with weathering from Mig and Tamiya products. The extra stowage is a mixture of Tamiya and Plastic Soldier Co. I still need to build and paint the crew member, and at some point I need to do something about the offside rear view mirror, which appears to have snapped off without me noticing. I regret taking such close-up pictures as they really don't flatter my skills! I do love these 1:48 AFVs and will probably start the Tamiya Achilles now (although I really need to finish a half-built S&M Canberra first). 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorby Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 That looks great. I would have guessed it was 1/35 if you hadn't said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
