loloskymaster Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Hi all, This is not my usual part of the forum but I have build this Autoblinda AB 41 in 1/48 scale. It is a Tamiya box but originaly released by Italeri. Quite a good kit but the assembly is not as precise as a real Tamiya one! I build the AB41 from the box. Paint is a mix of XF59 and XF60 followed by a little weathering. The model scheme is of the Polizia Africa Italiana in Tunisia , early 1943. Thank you for your attention and keep modelling!

Nev Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Very nice. Weathering is nice and restrained and the Italian flag is very well done - colours not too bright, is it a decal or did you paint them on? I do like the AB41, very attractive little vehicle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at what you've done with this, I think that you should build more armour. Nice job. John. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaStix Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 You have done a superb job with that. I'm a big fan of 1/48 armour kits and I agree with John - you should definitely build some more! Kind regards, Stix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loloskymaster Posted April 8, 2020 Author Share Posted April 8, 2020 Thank you, Plastix! I like building armour but I do not have enough time to build my planes. And, as I am a slow modeler, it is hard to finish as many kits that I would like..! But I have a nearly finished Panhard VBL on my stash! Thank you all.

Nick Belbin Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 As the others have said, that’s a great looking model and just as convincing as anything in the larger scales. Nick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
