1/35 Trumpeter Chinese 152mm Type 83 Self-propelled Gun

Post by NAMBiohazard »

Ladies and gentleman
Here is my final show-off :lol: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: (Didn't think I was gonna make it)

The kit wasn't that bad but had allot of pin marks to fix. There was no fit issues what so ever.
There was one or two misunderstandings with the instruction and the actual parts.
The tracks where a bit on the short side and broke both the idler wheels off, so I had to change the angle to get them to fit :scratch::
I used Humbrol paints to paint the model......
And pastel chalks to do the weathering....
I'm quite happy with the final product, so enjoy...............

Thank you again to all the support from you guys, really appreciated it.
And this was a new build for me, as I usually only build WW2 armor.

Thanks again...........

Apologies, Bjorn, I thought I had already posted a comment for your reveal, but that must have been on your build thread.

Great job there and I love the paint scheme on this (nicely done with the white rims, bet that took a steady hand! :crazy: ). Very nicely weathered, the finished model looks fantastic!! :th: :th: :clap: :clap:
