Hi everyone!
Here are some pictures of my K1A1 from Academy. I've started the built today and here is my progress:













I'm thinking about adding a metal barell from RB models. And Legends Productions stowage set. The painting is going to look like this:

With this nice blue flags

Nice work on your K1A1. I built the same kit last year, and was very impressed with it! I don't see it in the picture, but most K1's had an additional rack on the rear hull, right over the exhaust grilles. They carried a couple spare fuel cans

Thanks Jeff
I know about this rack, I have plans to scratch build it later.

Some resin from Legend. Also rack on rear included . Anyone got idea about colors i should use to get accurate Korean camo?






Cheers

Very nice K1A1!!!
Thanks for this Korea vehicle.

From my time over there in the mid-90s, the colors are the same as the US, the pattern is just a little bit different.

Hi guys

Some paint work











Cheers

Black stripes on turret, wash, and little paint work on equipment.

Hi Piotrek,

that's a nice looking piece of work you've done so far. How was the build? Any problems?

The kit is exelent quality, parts fit very well. Only problems you might have its stowage basket if you using Legend. Also tracks are too long, wich is not a big problem, because sideskirts cover them.

Excellent build and paintjob ! I remember having built the Coree Productions model years ago and your definitely looks easier to build and is really nice looking.

Thats a nice paint job on what looks like a very difficult scheme- great job Piotrek.

really nice paint !
thanks for the pics...

You did a great job on a very tricky camo scheme!!! The light tan bands gave me trouble getting them to "wrap" the darker colors , you nailed it! the flag looks good too, tissue paper? A few pics even show 3 small flags on the commanders cupola, I made em..the kitten removed em...

Heres one minor issue..wipe some steel paint over the skate rail on the MG mount, pics show it almost black.

Great job!

Thanks for good words guys

Here with the flags added:




Cheers

Dust:

Flags are a nice burst of bright color- dust is also coming along well.

Well made!
I see that the model of Academy is more accurate than the Trumpeter in many respects, as the shape of the rack on the turret sides, the panoramic sight and the shape of the turret hatches.

i think you have done a great job on the build and the paint work.
