Krauss-Maffei Wegmann Kampfpanzer Leopard 1A5
Hi all,
This is the Takom kit of the Leopard 1A5 in Bundeswehr service. The kit was an easy build, though it was a strange choice to not include any placement nubs, dimples or markings for the mounting bosses for the skirt armor around the [...]

This was my first attempt at using a pencil for the worn metal effect, I think I [...]
Trying New Techniques On Tamiya Leopard A3/A4
