KV – Two One is a scratch built hovertank with a Russian flavor. Body and turret made from sheet plastic, and then details added on. Tamiya paints and Mig washes and filters. Thanks for looking, all comments welcome, they only make me a better modeler.

Unique design and well executed. What did you use for the skirt? Same question for the tarps strapped to the rear and side of the turret. The weathering is great, too.
Thanks for sharing this one with us.

Thanks guys.
The skirt is plastic tube all cut to the same height and glued around the edge next to each other.
The tarps are tissue (non-lotion - non-pattern) folded/rolled to size then brushed with water with white glue added. The straps are cut masking tape strips and then painted.

There's just something about hover tanks! You really nailed it on this one!
The weathering is simply masterful and the rubber skirt at the bottom sure looks convincing!
