Rafhart,
This looks very interesting indeed!
Not sure what the basis for the build is but I think this is the British Vickers tank?
Please keep us posted with your progress picturesBig Smile

Very Best Regards
Johan

Man is it ever an ugly thing, which makes it even more interresting  Wink

Very nice work so far! Yes

Is it a kit, a resin conversion, or are you kitbashing this one?

Have build a few of these Mirage kits, but not this variant,  and have found them challenging at times because of some of the engineering.  Looks as if you had no problems and your producing an excellent hull / turret.  Find these to be really interesting and look forward to your continued progress.

Thank you all for your comments. Vickers tank was unfolding, he was better than the original. Germany willingly transferring to their Panzer I to 7TP as a single tower. He had a periscope and engine torque to the rope not bendzyne.
Continue work model of pre-painted and covered with shiny paint.

Model is not based resin is formed Mirage Hobby, but a lot of changes and additional Control element of plastic, aluminum, photoetched parts, wires, etc.

Hi, I managed to finish this project, as they leave it on ebay.com.
Model was not easy to build I used it a few parts from outside the system. Italeri acrylics painting, rust comes from the AK and the mud of Vallejo.

You have done a splendidly good job on this guy.   It's a real interesting subject and one not seen often making it that much more pleasant to view.  Very impressive craftsmanship making a not so great kit into a real eye catcher.  Thanks for posting it.
