Very nice. I'm not looking forward to the masking when I make mine. Darned Caunter scheme!

Honestly John.. It was much easier than I thought... Just lined it out with 1mm strip's of tamiya tape ... Was a little tricky at the rear upper hull with the air filters and the undulating rear hatch... A Just shot the paint towards the middle of the colour then just a slight touch up in these areas by brush... Was quite easy actually... Plus a bit of weathering in these regions helped also...

Simon, it's a great kit to build. The pieces fit together perfectly. The weathering in this one is great

Cheers Rui... I have often considered doing dioramas or at the very least a scenic base for my work... But nothing in the pipe for it at the moment... Cheers for the kind words...

Good choice of correct Caunter colors as many do them wrong. Great weathering 👍

Paint and weathering are excellent. The chipping, wear and tear, the broken lamp and the tracks are stand outs for me. A beautiful build.

Thanks Mr James..! Appreciate the kind words and your astute observations... Although the broken lamp was really me lazy and didn't bother fitting it..! Lol

Old Tamiya 1970s Tooled Matilda Mk II... Built over the Xmas holidays.... Nice break from high part count kits... Simple and treated it as a bit of a lark... Kinda ended up pretty good...
