Very nice. Try to get some of that "mud" color on the inner roadwheels.. The 45 degree view the inner wheels look to darn clean...

Nice work Carl! Mud looks great. Are those exhaust pipes in the second pic OOB or did you scratch build them? I have never seen those before...pretty cool! (++)

TT those are in the kit,I could leave off the curved section,but this is just a big OOB build.
GS,I see the area you asked about,when I get it back from display at the Hobbyshop,I will attend to that.

Karl aka Lord Leo

The dusting really dulled down the markings while leaving your camo visible to the eye -- well done.

When is the debut of "Da Big One" scheduled??????????????????? :-)

The mud on the wheels is nice. Concerning the splatter on the front of the hull, you might want to thow in a couple of random splatters up higher. There seems to be a very apparent cutoff line and couple more up high would help break that up plus add a little contrast.

Sorry, I forgot to ask about the vision blocks. In the photos they appear to be the color of the body. Have they been painted?

Does a tank actually get so muddy in battle?
