GUP CHIHATAN TYPE 90 KAI

When I first found this picture of this model....I knew I just had to build one
Said to myself...Self...why waste money on a 1/35th scale model when you can get a 1/24th and have it run :D
Hopefully it will be simple enough lol

The tank is apparently a paper Panzer (Ficticious) so details will be hard to come by

Re: Winter Camo pattern on tank 2 (No 203..), it's clearly an abstract barcode design used for fighting in Costco, or in a landscape packed with fence posts..or zebras. The objective is not to conceal the tank, but rather to confuse the enemy...then to induce crippling laughter in their ranks.. :haha:

Ever noticed the chinese never let their tanks be photographed dirty. Always nice and polished.
