Early Leo 1(pics)

Modeling Subjects Armor
1

I did this Leo for the Leo group build and now that it is done and posted on the group build site,I figured why not here.This is my second scratch build on a armor kit ,my first was on a Centurion for the commonwealth build.This Leo is an early version with the add on armor and was mostly done in 2 days.The dust cover over the manlet is made of real cloth that I bought 2 years ago and the rest was done with plaistic card.The paint job is in O.D.green with a ft.blk. wash to age it.So I hope you like what you see,Digger.

Good looking Kat , Digger ! I have done time on Leo’s , and these Kats , " Rock and Roll " … But I still miss the good old " Agony Wagon " , the mighty Centurion ! The " Cent " , was a burden to maintain , but each tank had it’s own , " Personality ". God love them !

I want to thank ya’ll for your nice comments.I like taking my pics outside,1for better lighting and 2 for realizim of the subject.Duke maddog thought I cheated on this group build and went to a museum for pics.Next time I will have to make sure that the trash cans in the backround are put up and that I imprint some tank treads on the porch pedistal.This way ya’ll wouldn’t be able to tell if its live or memorexed ha.ha.ha…Digger
P.S.as far as the type gos this is a Leo 1a1.That is according to my referance sheet.The a5 has the laser sighting.
