Thanks for the comments guys I am grateful to those of you who post your opinions it really helps me to get an Idea on what I need to work on and to keep doin thanks again guys.

That is a terrific build and paint job, especially with the figures! Which kit is that - is it Tamiya's? I've been looking at getting an Abrams one of these days - now I have the inspiration. What methods do you use for your figures? They are a challenge for me, probably because I do so few. Any tips and techniques would be much appreciated.

Excellent work!

Jim

Jim, Figures have always been a challenge for myself, Its funny how a simple little figure can be more intimidating than the build of the actual tank, the techniques I use are from years of trial an error, and I am always in need of improvement. The trick for uniforms camoflauge especially is to remember to keep it down to scale, for years I was always painting way out of scale for the actual uniform on the figure it is very hard , all I can say is keep trying until you get something you really like each one of these figures took about 2hrs each to paint very frustrating but thats part of this hobby I am told
happy modeling.
