Love the detail and weathering. Not familiar with it, but looks very cool!

Very cool. I love the gas tanks on the side.

Its all very well sculpted in, but is that a Brabham chassis i see on the hull?

Only ONE gun?

:lol

 

[moffeaton]

Yes it is! And the Brabham part from the ATST nestled in the circular tank's area. Crazy!

Yeah Steve, woefully underarmed!

Hah i see the BT46 crankcase now J.

Very cool. I'm not familiar with it but it is right up my line of interest.

I just love it to bits, looks so functional. The weathering is top notch.
Very clever use of kit parts indeed mate!.

Just got the latest Tamiya Model Magazine (well in NZ anyway, Nov issue), featuring a build up of the KV-47A from 'Dust' models. These sort of 'alternative' vehicles are just amazing with endless possibilities!.
May just have to get something from one of these manufacturers & have a go, they look incredible.

Hi Jason, I know it might be top secret information so feel free not to reply. My question is - that hull looks so real because of the weathering - did you mix 3 or 4 different shades and applied them in layers by hand (brush)?

Nice build, Jason! Would love to see Hase do this in 1/20, always a fan of Tornado.

Steve, leichte bewaffnung has been a hallmark of SF3D/Ma.K from the get-go. As I've said ad nauseum, think "Char B1 bis" rather than "Konigstiger" and you've nailed the aesthetic.
