Chris, all I can say is try an armor kit sometime. They run the full gamut from wheeled softskins that might even have been civilian in origin to heavy tanks and artillery, WWI thru today… all sorts of great stuff to choose from in most scales!
Brandon, I do agree that aircraft and armor have quite different approaches for the most part. But some areas do overlap.
So I’ve made more progress on my Lee since the last update. I’ve removed the kit tracks and am ready to install the T48 tracks I’ve gotten for this one. Today was a gloss coat and decals. The 193rd Tank Battalion tanks on Makin Atoll carried minimal markings.
Now it’s just installing the new tracks, a flat coat, some detail item painting, and weathering.
