Guys, my newest model is ready and it is an Australian Centurion serving in the Vietnam War. I went hard on this one with lots of modifications on the construction level, plenty of accessories and an abundance of weathering techniques. I also took a lot of effort working on the mud textures this time. Not my area of experise for sure but I figured a Vietnam War subject needed that kind of treatment.
A very detailed step-by-step guide on this project was published in the Abrams Squad Magazine #36. So if you want to join the mud fest, check it out here.

27 May 2023 at 16:13As a rookie to scale modeling, I am constantly amazed at how the professional builders make their models look real.
I am 57 years old and just got into scale modeling as a way to help deal with my illness. I was diagnosed with terminal with multiple myeloma cancer in February of this year.
I am always searching for ways to improve my modeling skills looking at websites, blogs, YouTube and speaking with the pros themselves.
Keep us the amazing work.
