Well here it is, my 3rd attempt at a 1/35th armour build - Tamiya's cracking little Ford GPA kit. I have to say I massively enjoyed this build. It's a brilliant little subject and a lovely little kit to build.
The Amphibian is totally OOB, painted with Humbrol rattle cans and Mr-Hobby super clear, weathered with various powders and Florey Washes. The driver was from the kit but I repositioned his arm. The stowage and the drivers kit was from various Tamiya sprues I have from this kit and the Sherman I built earlier in the year, and some resin bits. The only other thing I did was add a foil sling to the Thompson, and straps to his rucksack.
The driver was painted with an ICM US Army paint set. Wonderful paints - I really enjoyed using them.
As I said, this is only my third 1/35 finish, so any feedback is appreciated.
Thanks for taking the time to have a look!
Cheers!
