This is th iraq edition of the tank. Very nice detailing in the kit...

Thumbs up

Howdy Owen,

Just wanted to say great looking model there. I am a big fan of the abrahams as well as the Bradley, you might consider the bradley as your next subject, or you could even do thier british counterparts, the Challenger MBT and the warrior IFV . Both the challenger and the Abrahams look very similar as do the M2 Bradley and the British warrior.
Anyway, just wanted to say great lookin model and i look forward to more of your work>


have a good day,

Greg aka GEEDUBBYA (GW)

ya i know it's not painted in black. i left it like that on purpose because the painting suggestions said that they were supposed to be tan for this model. And i just didn't fill that crack for some reason
