Hong Kong Creation Workshop?

They are awesome tracks, although very labour intensive

Alberta beef is the truly the best.....trust me....I have some very nice steaks sizzling on the BBQ right now.

The bumper sticker was on only one tank in Afghanistan.....it was commanded by Anthony Sewards.

Alberta beef is almost as tasty as Newfoundland seal meat.

Wow Miloslav! Great build!!

How did you simulate the long streaks or scuffs on the hull side MEXAS armor?? Did you use an eraser to scuff off the pigments between applications? Did you paint them on? Mask them? I'm curious how to do that without having to paint them on...

Miloslav,
your build is really inspiring as far as the paint job is concerned. This one is still in my stash but for sure when I start it, I'll look back at this topic.
