Chris,
Very nice. I think that Leo with slat is never story. I think that next week I can continue.
Miloslav

Boy do I hear you Miloslav, I build a model about every 4 to 6 weeks this one is going on 16 weeks.
I look forward to seeing yours.

Great level of details looking superb. Definately a display model.

Amazing Job there Chris!

Andy

Thank you Adam, I hope to display my model at a up coming show.

Thanks Andy I'm glad you like it. I saw pictures of your Lav at Capcon, Very well done Afghan dust. Its harder to make it look realistic then I first thought.

Thanks Chris!

Where did you see the pics from CAPCON?

Funny thing - I entered the model but did not have enough time to check out all the other models on display ))))) the room was closing for judging

Its on Modern Canadian Vehicle Discussion Group. Good pics too.

Chris,

I am going to try and work two at the same time, a british challenger and also a canadian leo

Sounds good sean. I have a little knowlage on the Challenger as well as the Leopard so if you have any questions fire away. I can try to answer them.

Heres one I've built resently


Its the Tamiya kit with a conversion kit from Accurate Armour. Its a model of a training tank in Canada.

I plan on doing the Operation Telic Challenger 2 in a town but i need some good sources. I plan on using the Modeling the Challenger 1 and 2 MBT and tankograd. I already started a build log although it's far from starting.

Ok I'm getting close to the end of my Leopard also. I had a cold so I was off pace last week. Getting back up to speed now.



Gonna paint this stuff and then finish it off.

The slat armour looks really nice.
Good job!

Martin

Thanks Martain. When you get it all on it does look good.

I found a use for the Hobby Boss Leopard hulls- holders for you Tamiya turrets while you paint them.

I have the gear painted and in place I just have to blend it in and add strapes.

Finnished and heres the pics
