I started this kit for the Modern Armor Group Build last year, but life got in the way, and I had some serious modeling blahs which made me put it aside for several months. But, finally got the itch to get her finished.
The kit is the 1/35 Takom Merkava MK.I. This was the first time I used Mission Models paints and after a “getting used to” period, I really liked them. And I used Adam Wilder oils and pigments for the weathering.
Here are the pictures, let me know your thoughts:
Thanks for looking!
Really like it,excellent weatheting,I remember back in 80’s I built the Tamiya version,this one seems to be a far cry.Very nice.
Cool. Nice job. One of my favorite tanks.
That’s a keeper,great build.
Glad you finished her Bruce, that’s some beautiful work!!! [ht]
Bruce, your weathering detail is very impressive, very nice work.

Thank for the awesome comments, gentlemen!
Funny, I’m not one to wear gloves while working on a kit, but, after taking a closer look at one of the pictures; I left some fingerprints… [:)]
I think I’ll start wearing gloves for painting from now on, lol
