@Jakko
Thank you so much! It seems there are many highly knowledgeable friends here—these precise suggestions are fantastic for model building.

There's a Chinese saying, "抛砖引玉 (Pāo zhuān yǐn yù)", which means "I throw a rough stone to invite precious jade" or, more figuratively, to offer a humble contribution in hopes of eliciting valuable insights from others . My somewhat imperfect "brick" of a post has managed to bring forth your sincere "jade"-like advice and information.

Although the final model will have various imperfections, with the guidance of such professional information, I will continue to pursue methods that bring me closer to achieving more realistic results. Thanks again!

Thank you for your suggestion, @Robert Podkoński , and your recognition, @Alec K. The Matchbox 1/76 land-combat model scene was the first model kit that many model enthusiasts in our country got when we were young. Most of us bought the versions produced in Shanghai, and there are about 27 pieces in total (including the Challenger 1).

Since 2015, my friends and I have been collaborating to collect a full set of 1/76 scenes, including the Revell reprint edition, and we've started building them. I previously posted a T34/76 as a test run. My plan is to take around five photos of each finished work from different angles—even so, it feels like a massive project, haha. However, due to various factors, we still have about 10 pieces left unfinished.

Unfortunately, this M-19 was purchased by another model friend partway through, so I only managed to take a few rushed photos (it's always a headache to choose a good angle when shooting models). I still have another set of the M-19 kit and will make it again someday.

Thank you, mates, for your kind words!

This 1/72 Matchbox Siskin IIIA model was originally built by my father as a gift in the 1990s. After nearly three decades, I finally restored and repainted it in 2021. Due to its age, the water decals flaked off – sadly, the blue fuselage patterns and wing insignia couldn't be fully recreated. Still, it's deeply rewarding to breathe new life into this "antique" treasure.
