Guys,

Completed this for a modeling competition event recently.
Below are some photos for your viewing.



















All comments are welcome.

Thanks for watching.

I really like your paintwork and the extra work you did on the suspension to show it in movement.

Nice!

That turned out fantastic!

It looks really nice. Great job on it.




He didn't really have to do any extra work to the suspension. The AFV Club kit comes with a working, movable, torsion bar suspension, just like the real vehicle. It is a really nice kit.

Beautifully weathered. And yes, even though it comes with torsion bars, still very well executed on the base. And the groungwork on the base is also well done.
Now a tip to make it even that much better, and the second to last photo illustrates it best:
The lift rings, transmission hatches, and headlight shrouds that show rust chips-those should be aluminum. The whole hull in fact is aluminum, but those are the areas where it really stands out. And if you like, you can paint the area forward of the bolted ring on the barrel bare metal - about 6-8 inches worth.
Again, beautifully executed. Just needs minor tweaking to be spot on.

Thanks all for you comment...

Thanks Gino, your advise was very valuable in helping me getting to the finish line

Thanks Rob for your comment and advise, the model has been pin to the base permanently, I will not change anything now, will take note of your advise for my next project

Very nicely done!! The 109 looks great on its' own. But,, the way you have it moving across uneven ground simply adds an extra level of realism. Fine work, Donny!!

Excellent work .. I like the dynamic presentation on the cool base!

Congrats
Walter

fantastic job,specially in weathering.what color do you use for wash? red brown?

Thanks Jack and Walter for your kind words.

Richard, I use Raw Umber oil paint with Tamiya enamel thinner for the washes.

Thanks

I echo everyone else's comments. Phenomenal piece of work, although it looks like the blue DONNY TAN decal is starting to lift off the barrel.

Perfect work!!!
