Hello everyone,

ok i know this is nowhere as good as the other work i have seen on this site but its my 1st attempt and just wanted to know your thoughts. Its a Leopard tank, i'm sure some of you didn't need me to tell you that lol this is 1/72 scale, not what i wanted to do but my wife got it for christmas and felt rude if i didn't lol See being a young lad (24 in fact) i'm planning on using my fav online xbox game Battlefield 3 as my basis for my models, so i'm planing on doing a LAV-25, humvee, abrams tank etc in 1/35. This was still great fun to do and I really enjoyed it.

G'day Alex, the Leo looks pretty good mate, a bit more light in the pic would help a bit tho' so we can see all those fine details !

Congratulations on your first build, there is of course a right of passage to be preformed after such a momentous event , so don't be alarmed when 2 burly lads with buckets of cold spaghetti turn up at the door.

Look forward to seeing the rest of your "BF3 period" works.

hey,

thank you scott, i've used this tank as my pratice and done my 1st wash, was shocked at how much it improved it, such a simple methord with great results! btw i got as flash on these pictures lol i redo the mud on the sides etc after the wash, felt the contrast between the dark tank n light mud looked good.
