Hi Everybody!! I just finished my Revell AG 72nd scale Brukenlegepanzer Biber, its a bridge layer tank, But i havent put the bridge in the pics becasue its going into a dio. I painted the kit with MM acrylics, Drydrushed with Olive drab, and then dirtied it up with pastels. Have a look see, all comments are welcome. Bye Everybody!!

Hi War-Tool,
Great build!! Too bad, I would have liked to see the bridge. It's hard taking detailed pictures of braille models and especially if one doesn't have a macro lens. Anyway, the paint work looks good. It must be the quality of the pics but you could define the camou work. I can't see the red brown paint. The highlights doesn't show much in the pics are they very visible "Live"? If not, add a litle more white in the olive drab and it will be fine.
I have one in the closet and still trying to look for reference materials before building it. I really want to build it well and enter it in a national modeling contest in the Philippines.
Thanks for sharing your "Biber"! Again, nice build.

Thanks for the reply Wanze, The dry brushing was washed out by the light in the picture, you can really see it on the model, but i never can seem to take a perfect picture. Thanks again, and good luck on your Biber, the bridge is a little fiddly to build, but it goes together. I also tried to find some ref. pics of it, but i came up empty handed, theres not much out there on them.

Nice work on the Leo AVLB
This one is on my "to build list" one of these days.
We had the Biber in 2 of the Regiments I served in along with the Badger AEV which is also based on the Leo,now all we need is a kit of that.
Great work on the kit
Regards

Thanks for the reply E23c, this kit is really awesome, and an easy build, I plan on building the revell Leo 1a5. I have the Leo 2a4 in my stash right now, it looks like a nice kit, but not as nice as some of revells newest releases. Anyways, thanks again
