Meng AMX-30B2

[GusMac]

Hey all, no WIP for this as it was built in the early days of our first lockdown last year while I was waiting for my new spraybooth. Sat in the box since, so after I finished the Cheetah I thought I'd throw some paint on this and get it done. First attempt at freehand cammo and it looks passable with just a little overspray which hides quite well given the similarity of the colours.

Only AM is Friul tracks and Aber metal barrels for the main gun and auto-cannon. Goes together very nicely and detail seems pretty sharp.

Nice work Gus, which doesn't apply to the quality of the pics . Camo looks great on that interesting tank and the weathering fits like a glove.

Cheers Rob

Hard to see on the pictures, but this baby looks all business . May I ask for some daylight shots please

 

[GazzaS]

Well done, mate!

 

[GusMac]

Thanks guys. Yeah, photography isn't my strong point. These were just quickly snapped on the phone and it certainly doesn't have a top bracket camera by any stretch. Will try and get something better, or certainly in focus!

Martin, daylight might be an issue, this is Scotland in October! We're just about to enter perma-darkness when the clocks change. 😃

Ouch. I’m really sorry. Sound like the coastal British Columbia. Land of darkness.

Gus, how did I miss this beauty, camo looks very good. Never done any modern armour yet…….congrats….

[Martinnfb]

I've got so inspired by this build , that I just ordered one for myself

[GusMac]

Thanks guys.

Martin, you'll enjoy it. It goes together very well and it's a nice subject - a little less 'boxy' looking than some modern armour.
