Off to an excellent start with the hobby, then! Great work on the weathering and stowage, it's looking really mean.

Very nice. As your first build it isn't overdone in the weathering or stowage areas.

Hi there,
Nice tank! You're more courageous than I am with weathering, and it's paid off. Just saw the rope and rolled canvas sheets on the front - they really look the business. Can I ask if you painted the rope or did you just find something that looked great as it was? Cheers, Keith
