Hello everyone. Awhile ago; I thought I'd finished my Nagmachon, but when I took the pics I noticed a few things. So, at first I was going to post this pic: ![](http://www.modelersalliance.org/gallery/albums/userpics/11477/Israeli_Nagmachon_Heavy_APC_I.jpg) But then I noticed the crooked box on the side of the fender. Not good. Then when I wanted to post this pic: ![](http://www.modelersalliance.org/gallery/albums/userpics/11477/Israeli_Nagmachon_Heavy_APC_II.jpg) ...I noticed the black smudge on the back of the armor. So, I came up with an idea.... And now I can finally post the officially finished model. Here it is with the box fixed in front: ![](http://www.modelersalliance.org/gallery/albums/userpics/11477/Israeli_Nagmachon_Heavy_APC_IV.jpg) And now for my solution to the black smudge. I decided to make it look like someone took a shot at it: ![](http://www.modelersalliance.org/gallery/albums/userpics/11477/Israeli_Nagmachon_Heavy_APC_V.jpg) And the final view: ![](http://www.modelersalliance.org/gallery/albums/userpics/11477/Israeli_Nagmachon_Heavy_APC_VI.jpg) I tried to get a closer pic of the 'damage' but couldn't get the camera to focus on it. This was the best I could do: ![](http://www.modelersalliance.org/gallery/albums/userpics/11477/Israeli_Nagmachon_Heavy_APC_VII.jpg) That was the first time I'd ever done battle damage like that before. I'm pretty happy with it. Thanks all for looking in, comments are welcome.

Very nice indeed Duke B)
It’s amazing how you can see things in photos that you can’t before you take them!

Smart move Duke ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) . I would add a little damage to the rear of the palte too. What round hit the outside, would certainly have removed the paint from the inside too ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Thanks Steve! Yeah, I'm surprised myself that I didn't see these blatant issues before shooting. I guess I was so thrilled to have this finished I couldn't see them.

I didn't know that about the paint on the inside being removed. I'll have to do some research I guess to see how that would look so I can try to replicate it. I have no idea how that would look.Thanks again for the great suggestion.

Thanks Ian! They do look very Sci-Fi don't they? One friend once described it as looking like "a cross between Sci-Fi and Steampunk".
Thanks Porco! Yeah, there is a lot of detail on this little thing.
Thanks Pete! I appreciate your compliments very much.
