Hello everyone!

I wanted to share one of my Tanks here, in this case the Universal Transporter from Mirage Hobby in 1/35 scale.

This was also the first time i worked with pigments (mig).
How do you like it? I put all my knowledge into this one, so you can be sure hard with your critique ;)

Anything i could do better / tips for future projects?

Oh wow. What a cool kit!
I think you done great job here, looks used and grimy. Windows may benefit from some dirt/dust on them may be?

Great job mate, looks a beaut to me, but I do agree with previous comment, maybe some dirt/dust on the windows to finish her off :) :thumb1: :clap:

Good job - I like weathering :clap: . Tracks are too long (They spoils the final effect) :wall: - If you shorten them and mount them correctly > Circles- teeth in the trakcks-holes , will be look great :cheers2:

Thanks again everyone! :)

I'm sure you will make it well Andy! Just put a lot love in it, let me know if you start to build this kit! x3

Oh yes, the vinyl tracks... :/ Another reason why nobody love them. To short them now will be very diffucult, because they are already glued very strong with superglue.

When I feel confident enough I will give it a go...Thanks....
...and well done again on a quirky Tractor. You need to grab the "Klara" version now. Available in both 1/35 and 1/72. I have the 1/72 so may practice with this first.. lol.. :D
:cheers2:
