Catman Posted July 5, 2022 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
Peterpools Posted July 7, 2022 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

KevinM Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 A lot of these old kits can build up into a nice representation looking good thus far. 1
