I know this is going to be a fun build PrivateMansoor, funny how the older kits still relevant. They build up very nicely, I know the tracks work if your careful, but those tracks blow lol, are you going to update them?

A bit late to update them... the kits finished!

Here are the final build pictures

The kit was brush painted using a flat brush and Tamiya Enamels.
Stowage bags were made using Air drying Modeling Clay, with glutec used to make the straps.

These were made using modelling clay, painted tamiya xf49

The stowage bags were given a wash using Vallejo Model Wash Grey. The kit was also washed using Vallejo Model Wash - Black

Matte Coat applied and one more bag added. Weathering done using Tamiya Weathering Master sets. The white stars were muddied up a bit, but not too much just enough to give a used look.
