Thank you all for the kind words!Smile [:)]

Kelley,

Sorry, forgot to add: you can find more contest pics at the "Enter the British" heading. The contest was all about British built and designed equipment.

The camo net was made by cutting semi-diamonds over a sheet of aluminum foil and punching the diamonds out for clutter. Heres a link to a previous discussion here, with some pics of the aluminum foil technique:

Challenger 1 pics

Some pics of my 1/72 Revell Challenger 1. This was one of my entries during our club's British theme contest held last March. The extra details are made from scratch. The turret baskets are made from locally-made fine mesh fabric, and the camo netting made from Reynold's aluminum wrap. You can see more pics of the contest in our website: http://www.ipmsphilippines.com
