discussion 2S19 Msta-S during RAE 2013

[Guest]

Good day to you people. Hope you readers having a good day and all are good.

As you all aware, I'm building a fleet of SPG and this is my sixth on the line after the Dana, Type 99, Pzh2000, AuF1 and the K9. The seventh and last will be the AS-90.

This beautiful baby is actually a gift from a friend. My most heart felt gratitude to my friend Paul Bicar who spent alot of money for this kit (£59.99 is not cheap ).

The kit was painted with 2 colours from Vallejo Model Air and 2 Tamiya colours. I used Light Brown and Sand (Ivory) from Vallejo Model Air and Hull Red and Nato Green from Tamiya. The colour scheme is from the RAE 2013.

For weathering, I did it completely new and fresh without even a drop of pin wash but I had to dirty up the running gears a bit as these vehicles were shown going around the demonstration field during the RAE 2013. I also dirtied up the gun as the references photos show them as dirty with smoke stains. The same went for the exhaust.

Well, that's about as much I can sum up about the build. More informations and more photos and bigger ones (4000X3000) can be found on my blog -

There is also links to the 4 parts Work in Progress that you can look at for an detailed inbox build -

Please do have a look and thank you so much in advance for any feedback you guys may have. C&C are welcomed. Just be gentle... LOL.

Thank you for always supporting and for the kind words and various encouragements.

Until the next launch.

You give me too much credit Lee.. I am, in fact, a very impatient guy and a lot of stuffs are left out because I just couldn't be bothered.. I just learnt to hide them well. muahahah..

Indeed... the biggest gun I have ever seen on a tank is the E-100 ... that's a massive vehicle with a huge gun ( for a tank that is )

Nice and clean build, superb paint job. 5* all the way!!

Thank you so much sir
