Look good to me. Ive been trying to create that style of camo on my Steyr but have had poor results. Tried the AB once or twice tried masking fluid finished off with a brush. Just couldnt acheive the right effect. Well done

I've watched this from the beginning.


And you have transformed plastic into something that looks like the real thing.


Great work on that camo and all the chipping and weathering.


This is top notch for me. :D

Excellent work Scot. That wonderful camo scheme has blended very nicely with the weathering and looks very realistic. Mud & Crud stuck on the front is again very authentic looking. Only thing I am not sure of is the silver 'starting handle' on the left front side, looks a bit too chrome like to my eye but I really have no idea what colour it should be.


Terrific build of a forty odd year old kit, just proves you don't need the latest technology kits to produce a stunning build.

Great build Scott, well weathered and finished. The front tyres are very nicely done to my eye, as are the tracks.

Love it! Fantastic camo job, and the running gear has been weathered to perfection. As someone mentioned a week or so ago, folks are really producing some top-quality builds on here, and this is deffo one of them!
