That is a good bit of PE on that build. Did all the come with the kit? The figure looks really nice, and fit really well.
Nice work Philippe.

Thanks Shawn
All the photoetch on the model was included in the kit. My only additions were the 30cal barrels and the antenna sockets.

Very nice kit. The gunner should take care of his right foot

Well, maybe he slipped and so caused the debacle at Dien Bien Phu?

Well, about time I finally got some paint on:
As advised by Olivier this is Tamiya J.A. Green. Looks good methinks

Detail painting mostly done... I had hoped to achieve a little more, but over the weekend the
beautiful brain-melting summer weather weather wasn't exactly helpful. Somewhat like
this...
Thankfully the tyres are separate parts, so no tedious hand painting this time.

Feel free to point and laugh at me because I didn't notice that most of the "tyres" are actually part of the rim....anyhow, that's fixed, along with a few other things.
I did some sponge chipping with Tamiya dark green to add a litte wear. Time for some gloss and decals now
