I am building this up for a GB that I am running on here. It should be a quick easy build as it is not a complicated kit at all. I am building it up in the markings of an Iraqi as used in the 1991 Gulf War

 

so here is my kit

 

 

I mixed up a custom steel shade for the link and length tracks and airbrushed that on

 

 

 

 

and I started with building the lower hull... it was a bottom plate with teh sides and rear plates added. I am going a bit out of sequence, but oh well...

 

 

 

and then I scratch built up the jerry can racks with "L" ange strip styrene for the upper rear hull and test fitted some jerry cans in there. I still need to improve the cans a bit, but they are only placed for now, not glued, until I improve them...

 

 

 

 

more to come tomorrow...
