Hi Scottie
I like that. It may be an older kit but it scrubs up well in the hands of a skilled modeller. Weathering is particularly good. Well weathered, bruised and battered but not overdone.

A great build mate. When did you complete it?

Oldies are always goodies in the hands of a good modeller like yourself Scottie. This particular Tamiya kit is a gem. Real battered looking. Nice. Have a go on another one...I know I would.

Cheers,
Richard

Hi Scottie! What is going on here! My very last build was this LRDG! :flushed::tears-of-joy:

I completed OOB and really enjoyed my build. I went for lots of stowage instead of a cannon in the back.

This looks mint mate! Fantastic weathering and the scratch sand mats are something else! :thumb2:
