Nicely done Alan, looks superb mate and the figures don't look too bad, in fact they add to the piece.

Lovely job. I built this kit as an airbrush exercise a couple of years ago and was very surprised at what a nice little model you got for very little money.

You have certainly made the most of the figures though and made a great diorama with some action and some life in it. The weathering is spot on and you can easily forget it is only 1/35th scale.

Simple and very effective!!

I love the sand colour and the lights you have add ;) as the red wash on the wheels as well, looks fantastic!!

I started this one time ago, but trying new things all ends on absolutely disaster, I think is on the box now...:oops:

Great build Alan, I like it ;)

Cheers folks I appreciate it :smiling3:

I agree Richard it's a very good kit and it does look bigger on the photos

Si considering the state of the figures which nearly got binned I think I've made them look ok

Polux the red wash is the same wash I used on the faces :smiling3:

Nice simple diorama Alan. Your troops have come out okay, nicely recovered. The tank is nicely done, and the base is very convincing.

Fantastic dio Alan. You've made the figures look great considering how bad they are! Makes me want to have a go at the ones that came with mine.

Another I've missed!!

Great result Alan, a nice composition and very well painted.

I had a stab at this very set of Tamiya figures, but gave up in the end. They languish in the spares box, so full marks for persevering with them and getting a result.
