Claymore, Greg & Ramba; Thank you all very much, gentlemen! Really appreciated!

Very nice

Looks 'used' yet not overly weathered

The weathering came out fantastic! Really gives it depth.

I know nailed it is a cliche.. but Nailed It

I really like this a lot, to my eye everything works. Terrific work

It did turn out a beautiful looking brute!

Thank you all very much, too, gentlemen! I really do appreciate your comments!

Love how the weathering really tied it together. The paint reminds me a little bit of Israeli Air Force!

Thanks, Gingie!

It's the British Silver Grey that does it - it looks a lot like the pale green the Israelis use.

And here I am doing photo stuff!

The M1128 in "Completely-Completed" guise;

All it took was fitting stowage & a TC, & that only took 6 months to get done.

So, that's her done &, finally, Fully-Finished!

That's for taking the time to take a peek!

Nicely done OW! Nicely done! It looks like it has been in the field for a spell and in need of a good wash-up.

Old Wombat · « **Reply #112 on:** October 10, 2025, 06:43:17 PM »

Thanks, Jeff!

As I said, the only real change is the addition of the TC & the stowage to finish it off properly (&, now, looking at the photo's again, the stowage could probably do with some dusting up).

... They made a movie about this aspect of modelling!

That’s very, very good!

Absolutely stunning mate. The detail, paint work and weathering are just spot on. My hat is well and truly tipped!

apophenia · « **Reply #116 on:** October 11, 2025, 04:21:53 AM »

Agreed. "Completely-Completed" M1128 looks just gorgeous

As you say, though ... stowage (especially the spine board) needs some dust covering to match the MGS hull.

Buzzbomb · « **Reply #117 on:** October 11, 2025, 06:21:02 AM »

Right on spec there Guy... that does look great.
I would say one of the best out your stable

Frank3k · « **Reply #118 on:** October 11, 2025, 07:18:13 AM »

Very nice, Guy! It looks appropriately heavy with the flat spots on the tires.

Thank you all very much, gentlemen!

After-market resin "weighted wheels" - can't go wrong!
