Not much to say, Hobby boss 1:35 model bought for 15e, very cheap. Used Humbrol and Revell colours. I like it very much, and I hope you do to. Share your thoughts with me.
Dear Stefan, your model looks great. I like the colors very much. Before you continue, you should correct one BIG mistake. The APU box at the right hand hull rear is not correct. That's a problem of the Hobby Boss building instruction. They suggest to add this part. Instead only the Danish Leopard 2A5 have this APU, whereas the Swedish Strv.122 do not have this at all. I know that the removal of the parts is not easy at all, because you need to replace it all by the original Leopard parts, but you need to do that to have a correct Strv.122.
Best regards Stephan

@ Stephan: Thank you for advice, however I will finish this one OOB...
Here is some progress. I would have done it earlier but i was on vacation and stuff. All i have done for now is dot filter, normal filter and some wash, all with AK products. Next is gloss coat decals and then again gloss coat. After that, i will see what I will do next.
@ Jim Starling: I am using the stuff that goes with the model, nothing more specific. There are very little decals for it, I'm not even sure what unit is that...
