ivan-o Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 At last a bit more done,first oil wash, And now the weathering, acrylic mud paint mixed with powder and water. I think that’s about it for the model itself now on to some figures to go with it 😀 cheers Ivan 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really can’t say these are any good at all after having no trouble with my 432 tracks these are a massive disappointment! Update DO NOT buy these tracks for the Academy kit they don’t fit the drive sprockets😡 cheers Ivan Ivan, Ive used Masterclub tracks on 3 x 432's found them excellent. But recently build a Scimitar and Scorpion and used their tracks. The pins were so small, skinny & fiddly and lost lots of them around the room. Also they didn't stay in the track link so in the end a little superglue on top of each sorted it out. I will still use Masterclub as I think they look brilliant when eventually fitted, especially if they have individual rubber pads which make the pop brilliantly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get them to fit you have to widen the drive sprockets and do a bit of filling on the teeth. Still all’s well that ends well 😀 Ivan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I thought the name "Tears" was on a fire support M113 with the Saladin turret. There was 1 unit's 3 fire support vehicles were named "Blood" "Sweat" & "Tears" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just took what was on offer with the kit decals,actually the kit ones did specify 31A but that had a turret so I cut it down to 31 for the troop cmd’s vehicle and not a section wagon.😀 Ivan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
