This is my first tank, and the first model I have done in a long time, built simultaneously with a Sherman thats not quite done yet. So what do you think? Tips, Hinst suggestions?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! ~Scunge
Yeah... they are a bit big give me a minute to downsize them There we go, much better
Thinkl i went a little overboard on the wheels. Oh well.

havent coated it with anything. The numbers are somewhat dull in real life, but I was trying to figure out how to make the decals a bit darker. Was plumb out of ideas though.

You know you're a modeler when....
a:your fingers are forever encrusted with dried paint/cured glue
b:you smell of enamel thinner, glue, and paint 24/7
c:you shed a tear when the hobby shop closes.

Was that suppossed to be red mud or rust on the road wheels? There would never be that much rust on them I think you've got that dark brown on the front slope would makea good mud color to put on the tracks and road wheels and then go back and highlight the tracks with a dark metal colorwhere they would touch the ground and the end connectors. Real good first tank, they get easier the more you make. The more you make, the more you start to super-detail them until one day you're like that guy in England that's invested over a year and a $1000 to build one "tank to die for"
