awesome work. i have one of these in my stash and u have given me some ideas. how did you accoomplish the scuffed up paint job? almost looks sand blasted. and the nose art did you use a pattern or did you free paint. very nice cant wait to see it done.

Excellent work on weathering that kit up.
Giving me inspiration for the one in my stash

It's the only vehicle that I liked from the "first" parts of SW. It looks very interesting and I like the weathering you done on it.
Cheers

Thanks for the comments guys and to 'noc5659' I created that effect by spraying layers of paint over maskol which was dabbed on with a sponge. And I managed to finish it this evening. Now to start the tank!
Enjoy:

WOW. On the Hot Dog rating scale, I give that 4 Franfurters, 6 Brats and a Spicy Sausage.
Or 10/10 as you may be more familiar with.

Great work.

Now that I see the Potential in the Kit... I might Dig mine out !!! I was sort of disappointed in the kit when I first got it...

I guess with a little Love and dedication...... Even those Revell kits can Shine !!!


Great Job and take good care of it.... ONE of a Kind !!! now !
