I'd just say stay with what you got6. It looks magnificent and nobody except those who crewed this will know what mistakes were made. I love it as it is.

Argh. I'm in the process of getting the turret numbers and bridging circle re-done, and will have to have some dirt on the glacis..... Pics soon, I hope.

Well, I'm that way, I had to fix it as much as I could without doing a whole repaint, so I went after it. The turret numbers worked okay, I messed up the glacis a bit and just hand-painted the 5 on the bumper codes, then "obscured" them a bit. I was wanting to build a clean one, but what the heck, maybe next time. Pics so far:  IMG_1384 by Russel Baer, on Flickr  IMG_1385 by Russel Baer, on Flickr  IMG_1386 by Russel Baer, on Flickr More later, which should bring it up to being ready for a base of some sort. |

I think it looks better all dusted up. That was such a common look for these tanks back then. Beautiful work!

T'anks y'all. Down to deciding whether or not to stow it up, and a base. In the meantime, I started something ugly and Russian.....

Wow, time: where dost thou go? In a fit of motivation, I puled the Magach off the shelf of shame, finished the fiddly bits on the hull and turret and primered it.  IMG_5136 by Russel Baer, on Flickr And then, since the wind was still down, and I was painting already, color:  IMG_5138 by Russel Baer, on Flickr I may actually finish this one, who knows...... |
