Hehe I like how the pictures cycle through bits still on the sprues to being an assembled hull! ;)

I like it so far Moni, I think I'm going to have to enter this GB...

Pretty good! :D I guess the Leopard 2A6 kit that I have is just a rebox of this with the new L/55 gun. I prefer the 2A6 because the longer gun makes it look less "odd" to me. By that I mean it just looks weird when tanks seem like they have short guns but huge turrets. xD Still though, great! The wheels look like the colors were faded together in one of those last pictures, how did you do that?

ta,Ryan,so glad your liking it so far,;)
yes I do agree with you about the barrels,like with some of the Panzer, do look odd with,small guns on them,:rolleyes:
that's a mix of Russian green/lite camo green,then just add a few drops,off, of-white,to give that faded look,
and I do when the other coat is still wet,it dose for me blend better,than looking as it,s sitting on top,
hope its of some help,;)

well been working on the turret this morning,much like build,anther hull,in ways so big,;)
I have not joined the two half's of it,as I need to fit the periscope,s after it has been paint,
and also the other bits and bobs,as it will just be a very big pain in the but,so will,
add and paint after the camo is done,:rolleyes:
hoping your liking this so far,
