something different from me, modern armor

yes folks you saw right. i did something modern. i did a m1a1 with mineplow, it is the dragon 1/72.

Nice job Joe! that mineplow must have been a ball putting it together. Semper Fi, mike

That looks real good. I think the wire basket on the turret would have nailed me at that scale. Well done.

looks cool joe! i like it. i hav one question: why is the barrel darker than the rest of the tank? is it something to do with camo?

the barrel i was worried about. it is a wash that didnt turn out the best. the cage is scratchbuilt. many many thanks for the kind words.

Modern Joe!
Looks good, Mister!
Is it finished, though? Looks like some parts are missing from the turret, and is perhaps the top of the hull yet to be glued to the lower hull? Dunno, but kinda looks that way in the pix!
Bravo on scratching the basket. I know how difficult that can be!

Nice to see some modern stuff from you, Joe!

Very nice Joe. Thanks for the pictures.

Joe, Very nice work!!

Great job Joe! Maybe this will be the start of a new trend…?
What did you use for the antennae?

Agreed, the .50 cal is missing as well as the smoke grenade launchers, the headlights and guards are not installed. Also modern US antennas are straight.

Hey Joe, nice to see you branching out into new fontiers. Well done. I still have yet to finish mine. [V] Just wondered, the antenaes seem pretty tall to me. Just an observation. Keep them armor coming!

Looks really good Joe, don’t know if my eye sight would be able to handle something that small.

did u scratch build the basket?
the mine plogh looks good. mine was terribly fitting, but I managed to butcher mine in place.
