Ingo FNice build so far. Are you going to use the kit tracks or workable aftermarket?

Fabian D.Thanks. I used the tracks from the kit. No complaints there, but had to spend an entire evening cleaning up Trumpeters "parade" roadwheels...

Ingo FCool. Any issues with the kit? I got that kit too and also going to build the syrian version, but decided to go with the am tracks from Armour Track Models - Nr. TK-05.

Fabian D.@Ingo: Depends on how much detailing you want to do.
OOB it´s a quick and simple build, you´d only need to fill a few gaps.
If you want to add some more details you need to add:
-weldseams (mainly on the turret)
-fuel lines for the tanks on the fenders
-attachments for boxes and tanks on the fenders (I´ll probably pass on this one)
-wires for all lamps
-some odd lamp next to the turret ventilator (still have to do that)
and
-get rid of the texture on the rubber rims of the roadwheels
-remodel/replace the mount of the DSchK (have to do that aswell)
@cortex: Thanks, I think I´ll need a bit of luck for that one😉

Fabian D.Alright, finished the paint job. Used worn effects to create the chipping, but had to correct some parts of the green cammo by brush.
I didn't use the decals as I needed slightly different ones. Hand painting them with washable white worked great, as you can just wipe it away, if you aren't satisfied.

Fabian D.Thanks chaps. Completed the whole thing today. I'll update the album description with what I could scrape together about that tank later tonight.
