All Done
The Revell/Zvezda Armata is a very good model - well engineered, and there were no real problems in assembly. Scale thickness of some parts ( i.e. the bar armour brackets ) mean that they are very fiddly & fragile. Whilst the model may be representative of a preproduction vehicle ( it's not even sure that there wll bu full scale production ), it pretty good. I've seen it advertised at <£20, you get a lot of plastic for that kind of money!
J's Works Paper Masks. I haven't had a great deal of success in the past, this time a little better. My conclusion is that they aren't really for tanks, with all their lumps, bumps & cracks. You spend so much time touching up, you may as well have used a brush in the first place!
Finally size comparisons first vs the Zvezda T-90
and vs the Zvezda MSTA-S
Quite a monster.
Thanks all for dropping by.........
