Kv-5
i found a guide to making headlight lenses with kristal klear. i'm going to do this. i really like the ones i made for tests.
this kit was an experiment with oil dot filters. I wanted some subtle variation in the paint colors. I love the outcome, but I want to be prepared for a 2 week drying time next time.
believe it or not this is taken a week after the above photo. not much difference.
i said before and 'll say i again. I love family lineage shots. these two are impressive prototypes.
the decals that were kit supplied got lost. the kv-220 donated guards markings for this tank, which went on and were sealed in with tamiya flat coat. if you do this, you can blend them in to the streaking later. I'll do that later.

I can confirm that the tracks are tough to fit between the fenders and the return rollers. I had to carefully and methodically pull the tracks through from the front, which actually created a bent fenders which i fixed later, but yeah, it's tough.
otherwise, the kit was like a tamiya dream kit

yes it does, however i'm replacing it with a lens made out of Kristal Klear and have not mounted it yet. also, i'm checking some things about the color of the headlight
