Thought I might share my older work from last year, this is the M4A2 Sherman from Academy, in 1/35 scale. I understand that how 'weathered' for a working tank could be controversial. Despite that, I just wanted to make mine look special. [...]

Apologies in advance for the photos - for some reason my digiNikon did not like trying to replicate this color against light blue. Another modeler related similar difficulty, so it's not just me. Trust me, it looks better in person. The [...]
