discussion DaveCov's Airfix 1/35 British M3 Stuart 'Honey' (A1358)

My build of the Airfix 1/35 British M3 Stuart 'Honey' (A1358)

I enjoyed making this kit so much that I have bought a second, Academy boxing. I am new to using acrylics and some of the weathering has been washed out by the rather stark lighting, but I am pleased with the results. Apart from two bags, all of the stowage items are aftermarket.

This tank is supposed to be portrayed in 1942, after the Caunter scheme was dropped. The Airfix call-outs were:

I do admit that the brown splodges have come out a bit pink under the craft light but they aren't as bad in natural light.
