After some time, I managed to bring some models over the finish line. These are my three latest for this month.
First my British Army has taken delivery of this 1/72 scale Roden Rolls Royce Pattern 20 Armored Car:
Next, my Russian army has taken delivery of these two tanks:
First, this 1/72 scale ACE IT-1 Drakon Anti-Tank Missile tank. This is based on a T-55 chassis:
This next one is the 1/72 scale ACE T-62B main battle tank:
With those last two Russian tanks completed, I have finally gotten that entire stack of eleven Russian tank kits out of the way. That stack of boxes is gone. I love it!
These aren't the best I've done, not even close. I'm still practicing with Tamiya's weathering powders too. I'm not too happy, as I don't want my tanks looking so crazy dusty. It could also be that Tamiya's weathering powders are formulated more for 1/35th scale armor, which might be why it looks so heavy here. Hopefully someday I'll improve enough to satisfy my sense of aesthetics, or find another system that works better with 1/72 scale armor.
Thank you all for looking in, comments are welcome.
