OK, I finally got around to finishing the article on building the 1/72 scale Italeri M1. I apologize for the poor quality of some of the "in progress" photos. When I took them, I didn't have a way to download them into my laptop to review the quality. Remember, I built this kit while living in a hotel room and did not have access to my parts box, air brush, etc. and only took a minimum of model building supplies with me.

For not having your tools, that is an impressive build. Have your models taken over the house resulting in your eviction...man that is dedication #:-)

That`s a great feature you wrote there
Although I`m not a modern armour fan I really like what you do and I really like those cool details you put in.
And with so less stuff, and in a hotelroom well what can I say then great little vehicle dude

LOL! I was away at school at Fort Lee, VA for 4 months. Built the kit while I was down there. Small scale kit was easier to stick in a shoe box so the cleaning lady didn't disturb my project.For not having your tools, that is an impressive build.

Nice Article Rob - causes me to look a little closer at the small-scale armor world. That project looked interesting and resulted in a nice tank model.
