Here is my take on a M1A2 ABRAMS. Kit is a Tamiya 1/35. Let me know what you think all comments welcome good or bad.

There are around fifty on ebay at the moment, the cheapest is one at 14.99, with a 'Buy It Now' tag from Hong Kong but then there is a tenner P&P on top of that. There are even versions with a mine plow on the front.

Nice looking tank Chris and I like the weathering effects on the surfaces. It might help to bring it out even more of you used a wash to accentuate the shadows a bit as well.

Excellent Chris, a nice uncluttered one for a change.
