Love the colour.

Danumurthi MahendraThanks @Neuling. I like the Shilka. There is so many camo to choose from. And so many reference showng it in different conditions. Merits to be weathered!

Danumurthi MahendraThanks @Palo oh i hope you get to start on it. Great kit by the way. Just extra cautious when using enamel-based washes.

Palo MWhat's the problem with enamel washes on this kit? I think I will use oil paints and pigments, but curious.

Danumurthi MahendraHi @Palo. Enamel thinner, washes weakens the plastic. Plastic becomes easily breakable. Particularly small bits and details, they snap easily with slight touch. Same phenomenon with the Meng AMX-30B2 that I made

Holger KranichI am always amazed and jealous about the finish of your models, Danumurthi! Well done!

Danumurthi MahendraThanks, @Holger and @Samuel. I like looking up at reference photos and spend hours just going though Google, Pinterest to look at how the vehicle/aircraft gets weathered. i like the challenge, but also the fun dirtying up my models LOL

Album info
The biggest PITA is the tracks. Just be patience. And to add to that the way the plastic reacts to enamel washes. It soften, cracks and breaks easily. Otherwise, the kit is gorgeous. Great fit, detail, interior, options.
