Hi all, this is my second M48. I'm use Tamiya M48A3 kit with Verlinden sandbag armor and stowage.

Paint by Tam Gross black, Olive green. Wash by Water color, Dry brush by MIG and Pigment + Enamel thinner.

Default track was replaced with AFV track.

Welcome all your comments and have a nice day to everybody.

Looks really nice.

If you do any more M48's, this site is quite good.

Nice work, Solid!

I really like your weathering on the running gear and the hull. Perfecto! What base color did you use to paint the tank and what colors/methods did you use to weather?

Keep up the good work, Solid!

Regards and Aloha,

Johnny B.

Nice - I like it.
The dust/dirt looks well proportioned across the tank. Good subtle detailing everywhere.

Hi Johnny

Thanks for your comments.
For the color:
I'm use Gross black for the background and use olive green for the standard.
Highlight with Black, Dark green, Tamiya weathering set.

For washing, i'm use Burnt Umber, Raw Sienna, Burnt Sienna.

The shadows on the sand bags needs to be deeper. Great otherwise. Keep up the good work.

Very nice job! The OD looks spot-on and I really like the red Vietnam dust effect you've achieved. There's enough of it to make the tank look as though it's been in the boonies a while, but it isn't overdone.

How did you find the AFV Club tracks in terms of ease of assembly?

As Matt said, maybe the shadows on the sandbags could be a little deeper, and I'd also have varied the colour tones of the individual bags a tad. There also appear to be a few small sinkholes in them that could have done with filling in prior to painting, but those are relatively minor quibbles really because overall it's a fine model. Thanks for sharing.
