This is my 3rd, maybe 4th attempt to paint this model.

1st time, too dark, too boring.
2nd time, me and brush painted camo did not work out so well.
3rd& 4th attempts, I've called it quits and am moving on to weathering and finishing this tank. It's been on my shelf forever...

This was all hand painted (brush) with Tamiya Acrylics and once my weathering is complete I'll airbrush flat clear to seal it up

Good start with the paint. You should consider adding some wire around the electrical wire roller support on the rear of the turret.
Will you use the kit tracks or AM ones?

Wire's a good idea! Yeah, I'll be using the kit tracks. I've planned to put some sag in them where the rear skirts are 'missing'.

Jeff,

Olivier can confirm this, but I'm pretty sure that the tracks shouldn't have any sag.

If I remember correctly, they are "live" tracks and the suspension is designed to maintain tension continuously.

I gotcha, I should've said weigh them down cause they float over the return rollers

That's why I changed mine. However you can glue them to the return rollers with some CA glue. If I remember well they are a bit stiff too and the paint tends to peel off when you put the tracks in place. So it is advised to clean them prior to spray some primer.

I have to do a few touch ups and add the tow cables
