trumpeter 1/72 challenger 1

[tanktrack]

well guys this was my first foray into brail scale armour and a enjoyable experience it was the trumpeter kit was 1st class with the detail and ease of build being fantastic , i painted the tank with an undercoat of ak dark primer and then a main coat of Tamiya desert yellow sealing in between coats with Johnston's klear , a wash of Vallejo burnt umber was used and finally a dusting of Tamiya buff to give the sand look and all sealed in with Vallejo matt varnish . I don't think this will be my last build in the scale

Lovely Steve, that is a very nice looking Chally, got a nice finish on it, I was really impressed with my Chally 2,s from Dragon, great work.

Stunning little build think I'll having a go at one of these at some point

Great work Steve, that looks fantastic. Doesn't look 1/72, which is a good thing.

Very nice Steve. Is there any chance you could lighten a couple of photos as I would like to see the detail work.

That looks amazing Steve , until the shots with the Tamiya paint jar it could easily have been 1/35 I was looking at . Lovely job with the paint , it looks perfectly weathered and dusty , give yourself a pat on the back - its a winner! . cheers tony
