Hi folks,

Here´s my M106A1. It´s the old Tamiya kit with scratch work to try to represent the version currently used by the Chilean Army.

Gotta re-do the work on the right side decals (sorry for that, I know that looks awful ) and paint and add some few details yet....

The model was painted with Vallejo Acrilycs, drybrushed with gun metal in some parts and finally a heavy weathering applied using Tamiya Weathering Master Set....

The pics...












One thing actually make me happy. Trying to find an accurate paint for the interior (to get the duck egg-like colour) in Vallejo Model Color, found that the closest choice (at least for me) was the Azul Palido (Pale Blue) Nº 906, so if someone it´s trying to get that one, it´s a good choice.

Comments always welcome

Cheers

What a beauty! I love it when the kits have an interior. Your dry brushing effort paid off really well too since it enhanced all the raised parts.

Awesome job.

That sure is a blue interior. : ) Looks nice overall. Congrats on getting in done.

Paul

Hi Klaus,

Once again a really nicely finished build and it is possible to see your skill building as you progress through your stash.

Hope to see another soon.

Thanks John, if some progress on my build can be seen, I´m in the right path...

Oh, the HMS Grafton will be the FF Cochrane in chilean service

Kind Regards
