Didn't think of a base but I'll get one going soon, thank you for the idea!

Weathering is heavy due to (a): a couple of reference pictures I found of tanks that looked VERY well worn and rusted and I really liked the effect, and (b): the fact that a bunch of AK rust and dust type products had just arrived and I wanted to try them out lol.

The weathering looks perfect imo. Take a look at a few pics from the recent actions in Gaza and this is very accurate 👏

Basically done. I messed up with a couple of decal locations (sideways "V" should be at the front of the vehicle pointing forward, oh well…).

Didn't like having the Trophy system covered so I changed the orientation of the "brackets" for the covers and made it look somewhat like reference photos online.

Pretty satisfied with it. Had some fitment issues, the tarp on the front is covering one I messed up, but nothing too terrible.

This is a great result for your first restart!

Very nice work 👍

Thank you both! This project was (is) a great learning opportunity and I went into my next kit (the Sherman) with tons of notes. I wanted to get the hang of basic painting and washing here and ended up realizing how important "order of operations" are with respect to when the various layers and techniques are best applied. Gloss before decals being the most obvious visually lol.

The biggest game changer for me has to be the airbrush though! I'd only ever used spray cans and brushes in the (distant) past.
