Hi all,
this is my Tamiya M1A2. It has been started along with my Dragon USMC M1A1HC in a kind of parallel building project.
In the meantime, I built my VT72B and then came to complete it at last.

I still have to attach the crew gear and to weather it.
Any comments welcome

EDIT Pics of the further step at the bottom of the thread

loots good (got any pic's of the VT-72B?)
Only thing I would say is dust it up a little,
It looks to "clean".
But it's a real beautty.

Looks great so far. Where'd you get the propane tank?

Olivier,
Looks great. Keep us posted with pics as yo go. I am working on a USMC M1A1 HC with full turret and driver's area as you did as well. I'll post pics soon too.

Looks good from what I can see, but like said before maybe a bit of dark dust on it, and if possible think we could get some other angle shots?

Looks great sor far. Crew gear looks good too. I agree with the others, some more dust maybe. I think once you do the 2 figures and put in the crew stowage it will look even better.

Send us some more pics if you can. Again, great work !!

Cheers !

The tow cable on the front looks a bit over scale to me but everything else looks great. I esp. like the weathering on the duffle bags.

Good job.

Hi all
thanks for the comments and here are some answers :

so far I've not started weathering the tank hence its too clean look.

janwillem : my VT72B is the subject of a feature article here at Big A, enjoy it !

BroAbrams : the propane tank is from a Pro Art Models Ref US modern gear, I'll check the ref number !

MechManiac : roger that, you'll get other angle shots. this was just the first "hot" piece of news

Keenan : the tow cable has the right thickness but is wrapped in a kind of fabric band, I got this from a picture. I'll try to correct this however.

I intend to use the Tamiya kit figures even if I think the detail does not match Warrior figs ones. Anyway, I regularly mess the faces painting :-)
