The model tank is an old kit, but it is well built and the molding is exceptionally well done. the fitting is also amazingly good.

Thanks, @Villiers. I wanted to move from oil paints to acrylics. But old habits die hard

Hi @Spanjaard. Thanks! No plans for a base. Not yet. Pondering though!

Album info

This is the vintage Tamiya kit that was issued in the mid-70s. It came with three figures but I will swap that with two figures from a more recent Tamiya kit (No.35354). I will also replace the the jerry cans that came in the box from another kit.
