Steven Van Dyck АвторI've started the build by fixing the suspensions. The water jet parts are sharpened to look less clunky.

Steven Van Dyck АвторThe Leopard is advancing rapidly. The gun is detailed but fragile. Some more color advice for the interior details could come in handy.

Steven Van Dyck АвторThanks. The hull fit is well, only a little flash on the delicate parts. The side light positions had to be cut out half a mm, not difficult. Only the painting stage can become challenging, but you can choose also the easier woodland camo.

Ingo FThank. Yeah the camo is a little bit challenging but not difficult. I did it on my ZTZ-96A with Tamiya Masks. Took a while to finish it but the result is worth it.

Steven Van Dyck АвторWelcome everybody. I had to replace a lost particle, but now it's almost ready for the primer.

Steven Van Dyck АвторThe tyres are whitewalled and the hull is post-shaded in dark grey.

Steven Van Dyck АвторGunze H309 is painted on the hull, shadowed and highlighted. Still 3 colors to go...

Steven Van Dyck АвторSome principles in geometry are causing a lot of extra masking work... These two shapes took me 4 hours.

Steven Van Dyck АвторAgain some preparations made, it's ready for the light green pixels now.

Steven Van Dyck АвторAll the masking could be removed now. The results are almost like I had expected, only the green is a bit off.

Steven Van Dyck АвторThanks, guys, a few specks are added still, like under the fenders. Also the decals are done and sealed. This is a dry-fit of the crew, seated on makeshift sprue platforms.

Steven Van Dyck АвторA little dust filter from AK was necessary to blend in the colors. The figures are primered grey.

Steven Van Dyck АвторThanks, Eric. I started on the figure decals. This goed amazingly well. I use Micro Sol but maybe that was not even necessary.

Michael HickeyI thought the digital camo you did on your Snow Leopard was amazing, now I need to pick my jaw up off the ground after seeing your figure. Even though you used decals it looks superb.👍

Steven Van Dyck АвторThanks, I'm amazed myself at how easy the decals stick to the figures. All necessary parts are covered, now I'll go painting the faces. I also mounted the tyres after sanding the treads. The fit was easy, but the white paint tends to crackle if stressed. Therefore I gave them another round of matte finish.

Steven Van Dyck АвторI made a foam base of the road I saw on the Beijing parade pictures with the ZBL. The figures are almost finished, only to take away the gloss now. I shadowed over the decals and lined the decal-covered details. The white gloves and rockets I pinwashed with light blue.

Steven Van Dyck АвторI replaced the kit mirrors with polished spare PE and I fixed the crew in their stations.

Steven Van Dyck АвторThank you, Eric. Now I worked on a design for a name tag. It got the shape of a traditional Chinese roof.

Steven Van Dyck АвторI finished the base with the Chinese pavillion today. This concludes the project, have fun with the end pics!
