Catman Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I am currently working on finishing this little guy. I normally do not do 1/72 armor, but this was for the 50th anniversary of Matchbox and it was sitting in the stash. It is not a highly detailed kit, but I at least want to make it look good. Since the kit depicts an early M1, I went with a rather unique camo scheme that was applied to M1's at Ft. Knox in the early 1980's. This is where it is at now, I used Hitaka Lacquer for the OD, and Model Master Medium Green for the lighter green patches, with Tamyia Tire Black for the black squiggles (yes, I am a paint junkie😏). Thank you looking, hopefully more to come soon. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Nice to see the old kits being built. Sue looks as if the box has had a hard life. Very nice progress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, yes the kit has been in storage for a while, and the box suffered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinM Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 A lot of these old kits can build up into a nice representation looking good thus far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
