Excellent work, Latch!
I love that old kit. Built two of 'em as a lad...one desert sand, one gray. Now I've got the Tamiya kit waiting in the wings.

LOL, I'm with you!

My first build of this kit didn't get painted either! I think I was 8?!

Excellent job Latch. That was one of my first kits, of course mine never got painted! Tongue [:P]

That was at 6 or 7 yrs old. Big Smile [:D]

Latch, it's good to see that you built up an old kit-i have seen a lot just sitting unbuilt in basements and antique shops-your doing the hobby a favor in showing it off! :)

Thanks Everyone.

I really enjoyed building this kit. I "rebought" it back in the mid '90's.

It was a trip down memory lane for me.

I had it as a kid and have allways been inspired by the "Diorama Foldout" done by Shep Paine which came in the original box.

Looks real good, Latch66. You need a nice base or a little diorama to embelish it!

Excellent finish on this old kit Latch.

The Tamiya 232 was the first armoured kit I ever built and it certainly is still a favourite.

Thanks for sharing !!!

Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert
