Second Tank - Tamiya Panzer 1:16

Post by Dafinity »

So here is my second tank build. A Tamiya Panzer.
Not as intricate as the Leopard as no lights to wire up etc and lots of space in the hull for battery and electronics.

I decided to just 'grease' it up and used Tamiya Panel Liner to show dirt\grease accumulating.
The rear exhaust really needs rusting, buts its on eBay now for someone to enjoy and maybe try their hand at weathering.

I'm looking at doing the Abrams next and will definitely rust that one up.

A "rusty Abrams" sounds like some euphemism that I need to look up on the urban dictionary. ;)
