Well 'yer tizz' as done as I can get it I tried the hairspray masking method for the first time also the first time with extensive PE and aftermarket tracks the markings I think are OK but I'm no expert.

Cracking job, and has some 'weight' in the sand

That's really good Dave! I think the weathering is just right & it was worth persevering with the photo etch because that's made a big difference to the realism.

Nice photos too!

You nailed it Dave. Great build, the weathering is convincing and as has been said it has weight in the sand which adds to the realism you've achieved.

Top notch on this one Dave I will say I dong really do modern AFV if o do then at all ( there's still hope yet )
But looking at this example you have carried this off to a tea ( a real gem)
Love the weathering and all.
Really do like it
