I've got this kit, but I've never done an armor model so I'm definitely interested in seeing how this kit is done.

Here a small update on this one. Finished off the decals today. Took me about 2,5 hours to finish but it was worth it. The decals are very good, no issues at all.

Good work Ingo. 👍. Impressive how fast you can handle such big projects in that good quality. That build would take half a year to this state on my bench😉

Thanks guys for your kind words. 🙂
@Moritz: I am not sure myself. 😄

Finished this one a few weeks ago but did not take any pictures until now. Enjoy. 🙂

Oh yes, enjoy them I did - really nice work on a rather impressive looking vehicle! I think all the little PE details really add a lot, especially in the unified and still fresh green. The finish is true to the original, I especially like the pics showing the thick bulletproof glass on the doors. Great job, top model! 👍

Thank you Slavo. Yeah, the PE parts are really needed for this one as many of the details are simplified and look terrible. I had to restrain myself from heavy weathering 😄 as the pictures from Syria show rather "clean" vehicle. Pin wash, diluted brown filter and pigments to the lower hull and wheels. Thats all.
The color is Russian Green Base (ZIS 508 ) from Ammo Mig.

Very nice work Ingo. I like the level of weathering. A well maintained vehicle!

I'm not an armour modeller but know good modelling when I see it. Nice job

The most impressive thing you have achieved here in my view is the tyres. That is exactly how a tyre looks after it has been covered with deep dust for weeks the driven through light rain or a wet road. Kudos Ingo, that is just so bloody impressive I am lost for superlatives. The rest of the vehicle I would only rate a bloody brilliant! Masterful build mate!

Thank you ForestFan, Peter and Chris for your kind comments. 🙂
@Peter: I think thats the first time the weathering on the tyres turned out the way i wanted. 😄

Well you did a magnificent job Ingo, the dirt sits in the wide depressions between the sidewall belts. I cannot tell you how perfect you have done it.
14 July 2019, 08:05

Very nice job. I'm glad you didn't go overboard on the weathering. It looks used, but maintained.

Thank you Tim. 🙂
@James: I have the same problem with the stash. 😄

Nice job you done. Anyway, what technique you used on coloring? Is the red line was decal or not?
15 July 2019, 04:36

Thank you Tim and Havoc! 🙂
@Havoc: I used my usual technique. Black and White but this time not much white was added on the upper parts. Base color is Russian Green Base (ZIS 508 ) from Ammo. Brown for Dark Green Filter was used. I shaked the bottle very well and let it set for about 15-20 minutes. Then only the filter on top was used. I didnt want to have much filter on this model.
Red lines/stripes are decals from Echelon Fine Details set. Very good and fine decals. 🙂
