Good day to you dear readers.. Hope you readers having a good day and all are good.

Now that I am satisfied with my line up of SPG, I decided to go for IFVs and SPAAGs and wheeled vehicles. I started my other fleets with this particularly beautiful and sci-fi looking vehicle from Japan.

I painted this beautiful gal in Tamiya JGSDF Brown and Dark Green.

For weathering, I kept it rather clean apart from the various shades of mud and many streakings. I am very very weak in making streakings and since this baby offer a lot of nicely angled surfaces, I though I'd give streakings another try.

I decided to show a lot of rain marks streakings with a layer of dusts on top.

The chassis was bombarded with various colour of pigment for collected earth and soil.

There's only one huge boo-boo that I am really pissed about - I think I just saw a huge finger print on the front glacis.... darn it..... . "$%£$%$^&"%$£%

Well, that's about as much I can sum up about the build. More informations and more photos and bigger ones (4000X3000) can be found on my blog -

Please do have a look and thank you so much in advance for any feedback you guys may have. C&C are welcomed. Just be gentle haha.

Thank you for always supporting and for the kind words and various encouragements.

Until the next launch.

Awesome build Gary, looks superb. I too cannot see the fingerprint, just the exceptional paint and weathering. Brutal looking 35mm Oerlikon's, would not like to be on the end of those blazing away.

A top build Gary! The dust effects & streaks work really well - one of your best sir!

I can't see a fingerprint either, even on your blog pictures.

Cheers
