Nice model , how did the tracks go ? I got a set for mine when I get round to actually making the damn thing.....
probably next year the speed I work at .

Mean looking tank. Great stuff.

thank's for the great feedback guys
the tracks were very easy to put together but there is nearly 600 parts in them so assembley was a little tedious and i didn't use the resin sprockets as they were badly cast and looked to small to me.
cheers neil

Well I want to be the first Yank to say great job
Really nice work on the whole kit.
A friend that lives in England claims that this tank is better then our M1A2 SEPS.
Well that is another story.
Great job on all.
I also started using Carbon fiber antennas last year way to go I think great stuff ,strong as heck and no need to string that sprue out.
Thanks for sharing

Great stuff Neil nice subtle weathering , I´m not a great fan of over-doing things . I think you´ve got it spot on.

Turned out really nice.

Very nice build and for once an "original" camo. This one is kind of refreshing.
I guess this is the pattern used at BATUS !?
Did you used the Accurate Armour flashlight ? Yours looks great.

thank's for the great comment's
the trumpeter kit was terrible to put together, i suppose were spoilt by dragon/tamiya and all the other great kits out there nowdays and the attention to detail that the engineers/toolmakers can acheive in 1/35 scale is very impressive plus i think the trump kit is getting on a bit .i wasnt to impressed with the accurate armour update kit and deceided not to use almost half the kit due to broken parts and bad moulding.the carbon fibre ariels are very good and just nead cutting to length.if you keep the tank clean you get to see the hard work that goes into the running gear. the crews must clean the tank every now and then. the camo i think is a bit more interesting than the sand colour you see nowdays and if it was a batus tank it would be dark green over sand.
thanks again
