Hello,

here is my Tiger model IDF Nagmachon. It is OOB.
I hope you will like it.
Cheers,
Ilan.



















Thanks for looking.

Nice paintjob!
I've got the one with the doghouse under the Christmas tree. I wonder why Tiger provide the hush puppy tracks. I haven't seen a Nagmachon with them yet.

Because the "Doghouse" (late) variant (developed in the early 2000's) is optimized for urban warfare, while the mid-production variant (like this one) was developed during the '90's and was used (mainly) in Lebanon during that decade (hence the cross-country tracks).
Having said that, there are (were...?) mid-production variants with "Hush Puppy" tracks, just as well as late-production ones with cross-country tracks, so check your references.
Great stuff, Ilan!

Wow, excellent job! Love the weathering and paint! What did you use for the purple tint on the glass?

Actually the kit includes no less than three different pre-colored options: transparent, purple and blue/green (Ilan, I took the liberty to answer on your behalf... ).
