Hello Friends,

this is my latest build. It's a Tamiya Leopard 2A6 with the Perfect Scale 2A6M Conversion.
Enjoy the photos.
Comments, Questions and Suggestions are very welcome.



























Now I will try the camouflage net from AFV-Club to make the Leo look more realistic. Hope it works.

Christian,

Very good work.
I find the mud & dirt very realistic.

What was added by the Perfect Scale 2A6M Conversion ?

You might consider attaching the rubber flaps on the front turret edge as well.

Cheers
Christopher

Hi John,

thank you very much for your kind words.

The Perfect Scale Set includes the Belly Armor, the 6/2 Smoke Discharger, the longer Front Fender and the Skirt at the front.
It works very well.

@Christopher

I will add the rubber flaps (Schlagschattentarnung) together with the camo net

Chris

The mud effects look very good,how did you do that

Very well done, your photos look like pics of the real thing after it's been driving about in the mud.

Happy New Year

@Paul
For the mud i used MIG
P500 - Europe Dry Mud. Fine texture,
P232 Dry Mud and P033 Dark Mud
P249 Pigment Fixer


For the lower areas like the front or the wheels I use P500 to create thicker mud. After this was done I use P232 and P033 in different mixtures und several layers. I fixed the pigments in between and after since I was pleased with the result.

Considering that when the page first loaded I tried to scroll past the first picture because I thought it was a reference photo I'd say you've done a damn good job.

Nice build... and here you can see the correct mounting of "Schneegreifer"



and here is your version....



here you can see the original and correct antenna mount for the SEM 80/90 radio...

Hi Thomas,

thank you. I didn't notice this in the instructions.
