ringo Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Hi all, Normally i am a plane modelbuilder but a good friend of mine gave me this Tamiya Greyhound for my birthday and wanted to give it a try. Was something completely different and build it with a other mindset when it comes to painting and weathering but really enjoyed myself and am very happy my friend gave me something different to try... So this is my first armour build, i tried to make a litte base to put the Greyhound one, please let me know what you think of it, constructive criticism so i can learn is always welcome!

Bertie McBoatface Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 You did well remembering not to stick wings on it. 😄 Seriously, it looks good to me. Well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonL Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) Very nice! I used to only make aircraft as well - but got bitten by the AFV bug just before the pandemic hit. Wonder when I will ever finish the aircraft on my shelf of doom - there’s always another tank or soft skin to do! Like the base as well.

neilspen Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 It looks great. Well used look, but not weathered over the top. Impressive for a first armour build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 That's a cracking first effort. Always thought the M8 is a good looking vehicle. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
