Cheers indeed my kind fellows  . Ian, google T72 Syria, you'll be surprised at all the different variants out there. If didn't know better I'd swear they even swap turrets around too  . Chaps the beast has been primed, as usual in Mig One Shot Black. Next I'll be sorting out some colour, first maybe Russian green (not sure yet), and then I'll be going for a colour similar to British Gulf War Sand. That seems to be the best way to describe the Syrian main colour  .   Yes I know, tooth pics in awkward places, again

Cheers Guy  . Yes it's a good detailed kit, but it does need patience and very careful clean up  . Also the AM ERA blocks are huge improvement over the kit parts, sadly the kit parts are all cast in blocks

That's a good base colour mate, with some lighter tones over the top it will be pretty close to the real colour I think
