I've completed this model somewhere around April-May. I took only few weeks to build it as it was a real pleasure to work on it. Great kit, excellent fitting, many options like working tracks, ripper, dozer etc. It was build almost OOB, only RB model antennas mount were added.

Simple base just to present model as abandoned, rusted and dusted.

Very nice!

It looks great. The base really sets it off too. One small correction though, the two water cans on the right side are not US style cans, but Israeli water cans. The US does not use that style, but the below style.



If you could swap them out for US cans, it would look better.

i happen to find this kit on ebay for 40$. ever since i saw it built for the first time, it was a must have for me. it truly is a great kit. If anyone were to do this, i also suggest the voyager PE set. I am in the process of completing the PE stuff, but have a ways to go.

The only bad part about this kit, and is true for most tracked vehicles is it falls victim to having too many links, or not enough (making it too loose, or too tight). There is no middle ground OOB. i ended up modifying it so that i could customize it for the metal track links that i got for it.

You can make the track tension adjustable pretty easily. Here is how Marcus Nicholls explained it over at Missing-Links on his build.
