Been awhile since I posted.

Purchased this particular kit a couple of years ago. It was in the bargain bin, at my favorite hobby shop.

 Note; the pic is a stock picture, as I threw out the box that had the old Tasca logo on it.

The model kit was partially built, so the owner of the shop, knocked another $5 off, bringing to the grand total, if I remember correctly, 😀 of about $15. 

It apparently came from an estate sale, with a ton of other kits. 

I guess during the build, the person got a little agrivated with it and decided to shelf it.  There were a couple of mistakes made, but nothing horrible. I will say they did an excellent job on the two piece barrel. So it sat on my shelf for roughly two years. I sat down one day, corrected all the mistakes, and geeked out this little tank, adding details and doing a little research.

I primed it using Mr. Surfacer 1500 Black.  It was then coated with AK Interactive Real Colors RC027 Forest Green. And then modulation was done lightening the main color.

 Roadwheels were given some damage, painted separately, with a Quick Wheel template and weathered lightly, including the worn bare metal ring from the track teeth rubbing against them. Decided to use the a set of Meng T48 tracks I had left over from that build. They built up very nice, with a little patience. Painted and weathered them and then applied them to the tank. They fit perfectly and had some great track tension.

Added remaining details to the tank and added some stowage from various makers. Here's the final result;

Thanks for looking, critiques, good and bad are welcome. 😃
