Excellent work Thanh, the weathering is spot-on,I was wondering when your using salt how do you get it to stay in place? as I've been keen to try this technique out myself.

Well, first you wet the tank and let it dry a little, then you sprinkle the salt onto it and use a brush to adjust the salt to the right place, then dry it in the sun, now you can paint the tank whatever you want, the salt will stay in place ,
That's my technique, hope it can help

@Hoa_ro – Thanh,
Welcome, hope you enjoy your stay.
You’ve done a marvelous job on your build. I like the camouflage and weathering, the figure looks excellent too!
Only three days time from start to finish? You’ll have plenty of time for another completed build this week or you could spend some time with the beer girls, YES! (hush your mouth)
Thanks for posting and sharing your build, hoping to see more of your work here.

Very nice Mr. Hoa_ro . I can't belive that you built it in 3 days.
However, I think the tracks isn't good, am I right?

A nice weekend project that turned out beautifully. I may have to try the salt technique. Of course, I can't build this fast anymore. I've run out of room and am going to have to sell some of my old builds.
