I went to your site and read the remarks regarding the 2S6M.

I have used some am parts from Panda and I find their quality control to be very poor,as has ‘Art Instructor’ but he still turned out a good job.

I like the ‘Merkava’ as well…cheers…Kenny

Some more nice work by Art INstructor, Phaisal!

A word of advice: tell AI that he should learn to do “rain marks” and streaking on the sides of dusty vehicles like this. It gives a little more visual interest to otherwise blank, dusty sides. Streaks of fuel, water, etc, on the sides will add a little more visual interest.

Nice work! I understand DoD is interested.

waynec, my modeler used several methods for weathering. Starting from paining a few rounds, each time with lighter tone. Then maybe splashing strains using a paintbrush, dry-brushing and chalking with pastel chalks, etc.

f8sader, you’re welcome and thanks for your kind comments.

Karl, thanks for your kind words and nice to hear from you again. I appreciate your advice about the “rain marks” and will pass it on to AI.

TomZ2, thanks! I just know Merkava means Chariot. Good search. These days I search mostly for songs, lyrics and vocalist’s images…
