Adam,
I would just leave it loose....You know....a handy IED!

This one looks positively awe inspiring Adam! :mrgreen:
The storage and dust look cool and... well not really cool per se but hot and dusty as it's doubtlessly meant to :lol: !

But I think it really is the Smurf base colour of the tank that give an almost eerie, the ever so very slightly "edge of weird" feeling :mrgreen: .
It reminds one of the pink vehicles and the blue, grey, sand, whatnot schemes and patterns of the Western Desert Campaign :mrgreen: .


Best regards

Thanks guys :D

This one has taken far too long. Starting to see it as a challenge rather than fun. Got a three week holiday starting this weekend so will hopefully return reinvigorated ;)

You're teasing us Adam :lol:
Enjoy your holidays and get some inspiration to resume the great work you already did on this Tiran.

Well done Adam. I like the color you choose. The stowage and accessories you added really bring it to life.

Calling this one done. Its a bit of a weathering mess, but I was going for a "well loved" appearance :D

I wouldnt say it is a weathering mess. It looks really good to me. Two points though about the antennas. First the base would be dark green but period pics could prove I'm wrong :P
Second the antenna does not bend by itself. This is the spring at the base which does. I guess it's too late to fix this though.
The crew stuff is a great addition and gives life to your model.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I just noticed the aerials Olivier, I even bought aftermarket metal sprung bases so I could put the bend in them....I then forgot to do it! :?
