I’ve been a big aircraft modeler for a long time and the switch to armor is quite refreshing [8D]. I’m hooked for sure! Started my next project already…British Challenger! [8D][8D][8D][8D]
Enjoy!
Hey, that’s a good job for a first armour kit. Welcome to the Drak Side.
Looks really nice, Justin. You did a great job. Man, that is one honkin’ tall antenna. Better be on low bridges around that guy!!
Welcome to the dark side. We hope you enjoy it here.
Thanks!
hahaha…yeah I may have overdone it a bit on the antenna[:I]
ill cut it a little shorter next time. [:D]
Looks Fantastic. You did a really good job.
Behold the power of the Darkside!
He!! you should be proud…thats cool!!! Great Job…
Looking forward to seeing more work from you. I’ll tell you, you ought to jump into the sherman build… Its a good way to get a ton of input at each stage of modeling. A fella learns more than one should hanging around here…
Again… Great Work…
Great piece of work Justin !!!
You’re first piece of armour … The power of the dark side is indeed strong in this one !
Hope to see far more armour works from you.
Thanks for sharing with us.
That’s your first armor model? Wow is all I can say. Gee, I’ve been building since the beginning of time and they don’t look that good. Welcome to the Dark Side Justin. Another wing guy bites the dust. LOL
Nice looking build, Justin!
“AND another ones gone and another ones gone and another one bites tha dust…”!!
[:D] Sorry Tigerman… couldn’t resist…
Nice job Justin! Excellent first armor build for sure! Looking forward to more models from you.

No problem Kenneth, that was a classic song. Still holds up today as far as I’m concerned.
Nice work , Justin…I have an Academy kit of the Merkava II mineroller and you just got me motivated to build it!
Regards, Dan
Thats your first attempt??? wow! can you give me some pointers lol. Thats excellent
You have every right to be proud it looks great.
Very nice build, I like the very subtle weathering. Looks great.
well done [bow]
what are the round objects hanging off the rear of the turret?
gharlane, Those are I believe shot traps to keep incoming rounds from glancing off the undercut turret into the top deck…
ahhhhh [8D]
thanks for the info
gharlane, no problem thats what the forums here for… Looks like your pretty new… Welcome.
