After the halftrack, I wanted to try something bigger, and here it is.
The second photo was lit funny, so the colors are weird.
Unfortunately, I only got these pictures before I moved to my dorm. I have the tank with me, but need a digital camera to get more. I'll update when I get more.
Next time I build, I'm going to mix some white into my acrylics for the main body. Spraying directly from the can with thinner is too dark. Also, I'm going to learn how to do washes better. I used acrylics mixed with thinner and sometimes water, but the effect was not that great. Finally, I'm going to get some oil paints to do some cool effects.
Mig powders are awesome.
But all that's going to have to wait. There's too much other stuff I'm doing now that I'm at the university.

Nice job Philip take care of your studies, modeling is an afterthought. Also see if you can join a local modeling club. There must be something in your area. Good luck at school.
