It looks really really good. I can't tell by the pics but did you give it the two tone drab and black paint scheme? Fury is a camo painted tank. Either way, this one looks amazing.

Thanks

Its very faint,I put down the black and it looked to stark,so I sprayed the OD over it and it came out like pre shading,once some weathering went on its hard to see in the pics

That's great. Looking at the movie tank it is difficult to see the black too. Well done. I love it.

I've done two Sherman's with the black stripe camo over O.D., and the black always looked too stark until I muddied/ dusted the tank. That toned down the black quite a bit and IMHO it looks much better.

I'm actually not a fan of the film, but your Fury is looking great Tojo.

Its very faint,I painted the black but it looked too stark,so I overcoats with the OD so it almost like presiding plus the weathering obscured it

Thank you

Going to call this one complete.I have some figures that I will use,but that's for later on.I enjoyed this built as I took my time with the layered weathering.I was really happy with the results,especially the running gear and lower chassis.It was a nice kit to build.My camara doesn't take great pics it definitly looks better in person.Thanks for following along.As far as I know I made at least one technical error.

Tojo, I am super impressed!!! That is a great build. I haven't built a tank in over 55 years.  After looking at your build I may try building a tank.

 

Your comments and questions are always welcome.

  Your tank looks great. I haven’t seen the movie, and now I don’t need to.  I’ve seen the star of the show.

Fantastic work. I can only hope mine turns out half this good.

Thanks guys,

Tanks are fun,more forgiving then ships and A/C

Movie was fun,final battle not realistic but fun,also featured working Tiger.

I know I'm late to reply, but that is one fine looking piece of armor. Those extra details and your weathering really puch this to the top.
