Put up almost exactly five years ago, a Tamiya T-62 with a boat load of AM bought by the pound after Trumpeter released their T-62 kits, in all its faded glory: I got re-started Monday, adding details to the front and rear hull plates, and almost all the turret details. I just decided I was ready to finish it. We'll see how that goes. Anyway, today is fuel tank time.

Awesome! Is this build from a particular Era? Can't wait to see you work your magic, Rusty.

T'anks y'all! I'm thinking YKW in Syrian colors at the moment. All my Magachs and such need more targets.

I love to see the "shelf riders" get some attention! Bring it to life, like you always do!

Sweet! This is one tank that is so rarely modeled these days. I'm looking forward to seeing more. I should get some of my Shelf Queens re-started again.

Hey Rusty! Where do you acquire your thin copper sheets at?

Hey Rusty! Where do you acquire your thin copper sheets at? Believe it or not, the whole Verlinden update, all pound and a half of it, used copper for the PE. I was surprised. |

I'll be! Have seen it used by a few, to fabricate fenders and such, but didn't know it was also used as PE in a kit form. Thanks Russ.

It was a surprise to me too. So, here it sits as of right now, colors on, ready for weathering.  IMG_3565 by Russel Baer, on Flickr |
