Thank you, Does a small one ask MBT70 that we would make without the history to build the model that we make? My answer is that without history, without something that we can play we would not carry out any model based on the reality but we would fall in the fantasy... don't believe!!

For it, those historical Pics gives to the model that great pleasure of building it and weather it.
Do you agree with my form of thinking!!??
A great Greeting from the tropic!!

Hi Tigertankman
The track is rubber as it brings them the kit tamiya, but their internal part was modified, because in its original version it was not this way

Overall excellent halftrack Mario!!!! The decaling(or hand painting) is especially well done, the interior is great! I have a question, did the amtrack ACTUALLY have solid rubber tracks, because thats the impression I get from looking at all photos ive seen of this vehicle

I thank those comments a lot, really you if they know how to lift him the I encourage anyone...Thank you!!!
As for the techniques: the filters, the watery ones, wash, and pin washed are all in paintings to the oil and then drybrush with painting humbrol, I don't use pastries. To detail edges or angles (sometimes) I use a graphite pencil and the waste of the gunpowder I make them with graphite powder, as well as some rivets or screws where the waste for footfalls or prints is very trafficked
The technique and uses of the exposed techniques are that is to say in sandwish form first the dry technique and then the humid ones and this way an on of other allowing an interval of time so that they dry off and......... Ready!!

Looks great, but isn't the hood star on upside down? I think the stars were applied pointing toward the windshield.

Wow, spectacular paintwork. How did you do the wash around the rivets? It's just amazing.
I'm keeping these pics as references for my own build, if you don't mind Tongue [:P]
