Camo is on, but i have one more question guys.... On Egyptian tanks, the letters are only on the left side of the turret, or on both sides?
As soon as i paint them too, i'll post some pics.

Well camo and letters are on. Still much work has to be done... Camera's flash made the colors look too intense and bright. Chipping filters etc are to follow. The basic idea is this.

Thanks David. The letters were hand painted. My airbrush is not up to a job like this.

Some filters applied plus chipping etc... As soon as they dry some flat varnish is in order. Pics are not that good, but when it is finished i'll try to get some proper ones. What do you think guys?

Hi everyone, tracks are on and weathering is finished. Only dust remains.
What do you think?

Thank you very much Hakan. To tell the truth it's a very good kit, the only thing that is diffuicult, is that the tracks need a lot of work.

Thanks a lot Matt. I wanted to give it a ''veteran'' look but not very worn out. I hope i did it.

Thank you very much Mike. It's far from being a masterpiece but thanks for the very positive comments! Soviet cold war themes are very interesting indeed.
