Dragon 1/72 Ke-Nu. Tiny little kit, and the vast majority of parts on the sprues are not used for this particular model. I decided to keep the weathering fairly light on this.

That's excellent Mike - when I first saw

the photos, I thought it was 1/48 at least!

Great paintwork & weathering in such a small scale.

Cheers

Maybe it is 1/48 and the Humbrol tin is actually 500ml ;) :D

I have said before, you experienced modellers totally astound me! This sort of work is aspirational!

Amazing

I think the trick is as per the film 'Fantastic Voyage' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060397/). Seriously though, this is absolutely brilliant. I remember making a Japanese light tank like this ages ago by converting the Airfix Bren Carrier. I think the turret was a re-shaped section of a BIC pen top. It didn't look quite as good as this though :smiling3: .
