Many thanks guys, here`s a couple of things about this vig that you may or maynot have picked up on. First off I used as many old figures as I could on this halft,Monogram in the interior,Tamiya up front and outside the vehicle.When I did this one I had used up all of my halftrack kits on other vigs sooo,I dug around in my spare parts box to see what goodies I could come up with,and it`s well a mish mash of Tamiya and Monogram parts,one bogie is Tamiya the other is Monogram,that sort of thing,lol!
Lastly the mud is a mix of brown acrylic paint,whiteglue,water and dried tea grounds,give it a whirl!

sasd,

As usual amazing. Great detail! On the back of the halftrack there is a chain. Did the kit come with that or did you make it?? If so may I ask out of what?? I have been looking for something like that. Keep up the good work. You do an amazing job.
