That is such a great looking vehicle. Really looking forward to the top coat over that pre-shading!

OK chaps, Do you think this is about right? I know it's a little arty, I don't think these are that faded in real life.  |

Looks very nice although I’ll admit I just thought it was going to be sand coloured.

I prefer green. Too many Abrams in sand.  |

I agree! That's why I'm putting all three of my Abrams in three-tone NATO camouflage.
Beautiful work on that paint! That gives me something to strive for.

Mack I'm afraid I can't think of or find any rubber band tracks for the M1.

All the detail work that went into the master kits, to be messed up by poorly aligned suspension.
I'll fix it but until the tracks get sorted this is on hold. Not done with just on hold.
