Very nice Miroslav. I like the add on armour - how did you do that? I have the M978 with Eduard PE set wit Pro Art's replacement tires/wheels and their detail set for the hose compartment. How about yours?
Can't wait to see the rest of it....very nice.

Hi Bob,
Armor is plastic sheet-rost from Gunze and MIG pigments finish.
Your composition is very good, because Eduard PE for M978 interier and exterier is excelent. Pro Art set I still dont see but in photo is good.
I used only Eduard PE,Real Model Wheels and next is scratch-build. None set non include steering, cooling, engine, correct transmission.......

YOU are definately one of my inspiration. Outstanding job. I see that you are doing the entire transmission. Excellent work. Simply fantastic. Thanks for inspiring us all.

Excellent build, Miloslav. The weathering looks very convincing, and the rusty add-on armor is some of the best I've seen! Which Mig pigments did you use for it?

Hi Lucas,
I use: Light rust, standart rust, vietnam earth (is rough surface), dark mud and black smoke.
Finally one drop Windsor "sansodor".

Thanks Miloslav! That's a great recipe for rust you have there. It may take me a while before I improve my skills to the point where any rusty panels I make look like yours, but I'll give it a try.
