Trade Federation tank

I have an unopened one on the self so I have no tips on it other then to test fit, file and fill.

IMHO, Just like real fighting vehicles the Sci-Fi’s would be used in different theaters of operation so would need different finishes.

I have one of these nearly completed ( but untouched for years ). The colors I used were Testors British Gulf Armor Light Stone for the base color and and their FS Dark Tan for the darker patches. The missile launch tubes are flat back.

As for construction, It's going to need some work ( sanding, filling ), but it's not the worst I've dealt with.

I think when mine is finished I'll make a small diorama base for it with the tank running over Jar-Jar.

thanks for the heads up on this guys, I like the jar jar run over idea!

It's actually one of Ertl's GOOD models. No real problems in fit, and good detail.

Here's mine: http://www.inpayne.com/models/aat.html

That's pretty cool, did you put a light in the tube to get it to light up like that or was that on the computer?

Personally, I'm collecting these models, when I find them cheap, for parts. That turret screams KLINGON BRIDGE to me, hehe.

I put it together lastnight, it was a pretty good fit like you said! I just need to put the camo paintjob on it then weather it a bit then I'm done!
I'll post a few pics also!

I put the camo scheme on it over the last two days, it looks cool, I need to weather and wash it then I'm done.
