Muchmirth Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Hi all, Here is my FT-17. Its the 1/35 meng kit. This was a joy to make. Its all brush painted. Filters done with oils and mud was made from a homemade solution. Any feedback welcome. Shot of the inside before assembly: I very loosely based it from this pic below, just liked the way it had randomly hit or had been pushed into a tree. Shot prior to weathering: Thanks for looking, Paul Edited January 18, 2023 by Muchmirth Added photo 21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stef N. Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Very nice tank and scene. The camo and weathering is well done and I love your homemade mud. Top job.👍👏 Having one of these in the stash I am glad it is a joy to build too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly you should do the one in the stash. I might do another but in this jazzy number: Edited January 18, 2023 by Muchmirth Spelling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(It certainly helps sell a model kit.😀👍) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
