Update pics of my Leopard:)

Ok added the extras on top, riot shieelding for the commanders side and back…i think it is usefull in urban conflict…but thats me. I still have to poaint the tubing and all but just wanted to hear your thoughts:)

Well here she is now, still need to finish up the lights in front, add the tow line, finish the road wheels and all , add decals and weather her then dull coat, but i wanted to show you what i have done up to now:)

Lemme know your thoughts!

Horus,
are you sure that the 1A4 carries only one tow cable and not two as all the oter Leopards of the “1” series?
Ciao

not really i am pretty sure it carries 2 bot i only made one…lol altho the way i made it i could carry 2

for tow ropes I use bike gear cable.
It is the right size and if you leave it in water for a while , you get real rust!

Horus:
it’s looking good…i was wondering, did you hand paint it ? i’ve been working up the courage to try a multicolor scheme, but i don’t have an airbrush. so, i’m kinda scared to mess it up.
frosty[:)]

Frosty,
yes i hand painted the whole thing, in fact i just applied the decals…i will post them now.

Give it a shot it’s not that hard:)

ummm… just a small suggestion: try painting the end of the barrel black.
otherwise, you did a good job on it!!![:)]

LOL i just realized that…lol

More pics…added some weathering and all, still need to dust the tracks and all. and lay the dull coat down.




Lemme know what ya think!

Horus will you finish my Panzer III for me? Wow your cruising on that Leopard. How do you feel about it so far? It’s coming along nicely.

I am very pleased with it, i am glad that my first armor project has gone so smoothly…definately makes me want another:)
I would gladly finish your Panzer III for you :wink:
I thank you for you praise, i am new to this so hopefull all will get better…as of right this second i am taking a break from the Leo so i can work on a Jeep Willy’s MB (Tamiya 1/35th) for my friend that we got him:)

I will keep you all posted when i am finished…i have the Dio to display this Leo to do still:)

Second tow cable totally beats the first version you had!! Like how’s coming along…

Love the blue camo, not sure about its authenticity :stuck_out_tongue:

Seriously, looking good. The tow cable is wound up elecrical wire, right?

Blue camo not really auth…lol The tow cable is a single piec of 22 guage wire(kind you get at Rad Shack) twisted really tight.
The blue camo(which is actually Shadow Grey) is due to the fact that this tank is going to be put in a urban Dio so i thought what the hey!

Thanks all for your kind words…there is still more to come with this tank as shermanfreak gave me some good tips and pointed out some flaws that i eeded to address:)

Keep a eye out!

More comming soon!
