love the your JS II, the weathering and looks great and the attention to detail. I like the damaged barrel canister at the back of the tank.

Keep up the good work.

Hi Oishi

Nice looking JS II , all beaten up and rusty I love the mud and weathering .

Only nitpick is the tracks look a little too saggy ( left one in particular )

But otherwise great job

mud looks great the paint and weathering also look great i really love the look especially the battle damage but must agree about the track sag it really takes away from a really nice build.

While your weathering is absolutely superb, like the others I have to say the amount of track sag you have is horrendous. The tank would have not been able to move 20 feet before it would have fallen off. This is both sides. Take a look at some pictures of the tank in action A tank with return rollers has very little sag as the little wheels at the top support it. I know my comment sounds harsh, but I was a for real tanker on an M60a1 tank. The only way the track sagged like that is when we Broke it to do maintenence. I would estimate you need to remove at least 5 or more sections per side. And totally honest here, I think you have done a truely outstanding job on the kit. The weathering really brings it to life.

Very nice one, Oishi!
Personally, I did not notice there was too much sag on the tracks, but I like it!
How did you make it dirty?

I love dirty tanks and you have done a great weathering job, the lamp lense is very clean though.

Nice weathering (mud looks great) but I have to agree about the track - too much saggy.
