Wonderful workmanship there Ekaufman! You did a very nice job on the weathering. I bet those little decals on the side skirts were a "b". They are decals, right?
It's really cool how you "braille - scale" folks operate. Is this the scale you normally build?
On a side note, I would have liked a coin or something else familiar photographed next to the model to help show off it's small size.

Revell of Germany has really raised the braille scale mark. I grew up doing Airfix, Matchbox, Esci and an occasional Fujimi and Hasegawa (Japanese were harder to find). With the exception of the RoG T-80, all of my RoG braille kits are real nice.
Yours looks like a nice build. Lots of detail packed into a 3" model. Straight out-of-box or did you have to do anything to it besides add an antenna?

Sabot, the only addition beside the antenna is the sight cover which is detailless in the kit

I was just wondering if you added the ball & chain. How'd they make it? I think it looks really good from you photos.
