Completed in May 2006, this was my first serious attempt at building an armoured vehicle model. There were many firsts here for me: the use of "pre-shading"; photo-etch (albeit simply pistol ports and grab-handles); spraying acrylics; and weathering. The Airwaves photo-etch set was used for minor detailing, and the model was finished using a variety of paints including Acrylicos Vallejo Model Air, Tamiya, and artist oils. Weathering was done using mist coats of the aforementioned paints and Mig pigments.
