Vickers E Mk B light tank in Polish Army service, late 1930's, 1/35 MirageHobby

thoroughly enjoyed doing this kit! considering it was a really cheap kit (4 quid!) that I put together just to try a weathering technique it was a joy to put together....only thing that let it down is the rubber tracks that was a little bit too long but that was all and that's such a minor thing so easily corrected. I'm quite impressed with the brand and am on the lookout for others from them now

built oob, just added Thomasz the tank commander who was from a Zvedza/Italerai set of Russian tank figures, figures i find so difficult to do, tried using maskol and pigments to create a chipped/rusted effect

Nice piece of armour I really like that chipping effect , I've tried it and I can only really make it work on edges and corners but you've done a great job on flat surfaces well done :smiling3:

I agree with everything that's been said & personally it's really good seeing something different from the usual.
