havint built a tank in a long long time so before i get on with the BSC (which i am starting in april) i thought a quick build in which to practice weathering will be ideal and this is my choosing subject

great kit to get the old mojo going. I've built that kit and even though it's not a high end kit, still a fun build.
 
Fairly flying through this kit. Must say its really reaaly basic :-\ never mind its the painting and weathering im looking forward to :)

thats the one thing i dislike about tamiya kits but once painted and weathered it will look real good
 
Totaly agree spud. Im really only using it for practicing weathering techniques
 
All primed and base coated. I built a little display for this just a basic rocky desert with a few plants.

All washed and drybrushed. Acually looking not to bad like this but going to do heavy weathering and chipping on this bad boy
