So, its been a while since I've posted anything. College and photobucket issues caused that. I recently finished the Dragon M46 and some feedback would be awesome, this is my first tigerface tank that I've done.
I do acknowledge the fact that I am no Mike Roof when it comes to figure painting.

Trevor, that looks super, is that all painted or did you use any decals? I too have one of these but have not gotten to it yet. Good luck on your next project. Rick

Hey Trevor, pretty nice job there. I really like the paint on it. I do have a couple things, though.
First, it looks like the tank is running through some good mud. I would expect to see a bit more around the outer edge of the tracks where the wheels don't hit. I would also think that the tank would be sinking in the ground a bit more than you show. It looks like it's riding on the mud, not in it.
The other thing is that it looks like you painted over the view ports in the commander's copula.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Bob, I hadnt even noticed the view ports. I must have looked right over it. I'll work on the mud when I get a break from the onslaught of school work.
