It is in the stash. So why not. A bit basic kit, but can build well enough into a decent representation of the actual tank as an oob build.

Thanks guys. Well, everything is assembled and ready for primer since last night. After the primer i will spray it with this paint you see below to represent the gravel that is attached on the tank to provide it with an antislip surface. (Yes, gravel).

Yep and practical too. I learned the trick from his evilness himself. Paul B did that some years ago..... 😉
