Okie the completed kit.....the setup is somewhat inspired by shieldwulf's excellent Leopard.....a challenger churning along some desert road, perhaps in Operation Granby ? Em58.....the union flag is made from tissue paper soaked in flat varnish and hand painted......

The tank and base looks great! Esp the groundwork.
Will watch for this at the gathering.
Very kilat weathering works. The Challenger appeared battle-worn and fearless, scanning the landscape while moving along the highway, ever-ready to counter any insurgent attack. I enjoyed the groundwork and the detailed weathering done on the vehicle, though seemed somewhat over-done, but who knows, years has passed but the battle is not over. I presume the white line is a "side-line" at the side of the road, not a divider line as it's too near to the rubbles on the road-side.
Fwah.. sui leh.. some more 1/72.Wink-wink
The ground work also very well done.
Wa.. soon can see this LIVE liao!!!Smiles9wc
thanks guys, still learning for armour, need to hit the right mode for armour and aircraft. Lol I think some methods can interchange but need some tempering Em112

shieldwulf, you are right abt the weathering. Time to get the right brush size liaw.Cold0wj Yes, the white line is suppose to be the side line. The base is abit restrictive after putting in the sand bump so the side line becomes a bit confusing. Thot of doing away with the side line but already half done, so just whack lah !Smiles9wc anyway I think all desert roads have some sort of side line, at least that is what I found. See my references I print out for desert roads in middle east countries.Lol

the weathering looks extreme only if you look at the 'zoom in' pictures, from far looks quite real! Nice job! at the moment i am also building a challenger but the II version.... Smile
