Here is my rendition of the Trumpeter 1/35 C1 Ariete. It has a bit more weathering to go and a touch up of the tow cable. It is painted using Tamiya Acrylics, Drybrushed with Humbrol Enamels and had a wash using windsor & newton oils.

It is a very enjoyable build and comes up a treat. I still have a long way to go with my washes and drybrushing technique but everyday is a day closer.

Comments most welcome. Cheers and good luck

Very nice kit so far. You could darken the engine grill a bit more.

Did you build it OOB ? How is the fit ? This one is on my wish list.

Very nice - I would like to see a bit darker wash on the engine covers.
Other than that - looks good nice job.
