    Looks great! But, I especially like the Scottish sunshine in the background.. Seriously though, the color palette looks like it's been outside, as it should.
    The more screws it takes to reassemble a tank, the more likely it is you left something out!

      The only thing Tamiya on my Leopard2a6 is the metal track.
      ​
      It has a Torro metal lower chassis, Torro plastic upper chassis. The Heng Long turret is upgraded with servo recoil. I used the HL NATO pattern as my painting guide.

She’s now asking why others are not as cheap?)
        I think I have created an inexpensive, good looking model, and if this mediocre modeller can do it, then anyone can.
        It is finished as a “what if”, if the Danish have had a 2A7, converted to 2A7v for evaluation purposes. Just need an amber beacon, and to fit the tow ropes.
        I think she looks really good Ian.

        Lol, See now she's gonna wonder when the next one is is a few pence more.

        I have a beacon that comes with the Torro if your interested? It's just the amber LED bulb though on a metal post, nothing fancy. Might be time for me to send a holiday card your way this year.
