Nicely done!! I love the heavy weathering! 
!http://forums.scifi-nexus.com/images/smilies/nabble/smiley_evil.gifThat’s some mean looking weathering!
Exceptionally well done, I just picked up one for cheap at a show, will tackle it later.
M.Brindos, thank you very much, yep I did not want to add too much rust since its a dry place, mostly is all sun burned and lots of dust.
Disastermaster, appreciate your comments, photos are very bad, I hope to have better once I build the small dio.
CarnivourousDonut, yeah, it is a cheap, very very easy to build, I had a lot of troubles with the rubber tracks they seem a little small for the lenght needed so the return idler came off. Lost of glue were needed. Thanks for commenting.
Ohhhhhh very cool, big kudos sir!
Truly nasty looking, I love it.
I’ve got the same kit in the stash, and about five pounds of old Verlinden AM stuff, starting to get the urge…
It did turn out well. for a quick base you lay out some sheet plastic cut like large concrete slabs, slightly stippled and painted concrete. or put it in a u shaped hull down revetment.
Soorryyyyy…it took forever to finish this model. So many things going on, work, life, travel, stuf… [8-|]
Anyway, I was able to finish the model in a nice desert setting to make it look abandoned…
I really like how it turned out. I was even able to finish it on time for the regional IPMS contest. It did not won any prizes…[:(] which is weird for me since I really look the cooked, fading color…HOWEVER…I also put a couple of other kits:
- My dio of the Hummel: WON 3rd place in dio.
- The Renault FT 17 WON 2nd place!! [:D] in armor before 1939
This was a great experience for me, my 1st regional IPMS and won 2 places with 4 models. And also able to see a lot of great work and compare yourself with others work in real life.
Also, lots and lots of model stores…too hard to keep my wallet inside my pants…[:'(]
Anyway… here are the finished pics!!
Thanks for stoping by…

Just…Excellent!
Well done Hugo. I really like the weathering, it seems to fit the vehicle perfectly.
Hugo, great job on this, honestly it is both an inspiration and something to aspire to. [Y]
Weathering looks spot on, and great choice on the photo backdrop, it all combines into a very realistic presentation.

Thank you sir
Eric,
Thanks, what can I say coming from an expert…
Jack,
Yep, I tried on the photos, I live in a crowded city, so getting pictures without houses in the back is troublesome.
Thank you very much for your kindness.
Nicely finished build and the weathering really fits into that scene.
Thank you Bish, I tried some “technics” to add dust, didnt came out as expected but oh well, you try and you fail and you try again.
Hey Garzonh, congrads on your well deserved wins!
Beautiful work on the T-62, everything works! Just a great job all around.
Wow, amazing job and definitely inspiring for a rookie hacker like me! Thanks for sharing!!
Hugo, excellent base, really sets the model off.
Well done!
That looks great Garzon! Especially on that base to put everything into proper context! Very well done sir!
