Hi Curt
Taking the plunge on an Armortek kit is a big step, which is why I'm into 1/16th. The most modern AFV Armortek has built as yet, is the Centurion, though there have been a few requests for Chieftain, but that hasn't happened - yet.

Re the interior painting, I've found that white paint, even Matt, takes ages to dry, whereas silver drys pretty quickly. Of course that might not be an issue in Israel?

Mal,

Understood on the commitment to the 1/6 scale tank!

We don't have issues with paint drying here in the southwestern United States. I don't know the climate in Israel, though I would expect that it's not that different than it is here in Las Vegas, Nevada. We have very hot summers (105-110 degrees Fahrenheit highs) and typically less than 5% humidity. Paint does not take long to dry here!
