Hmm.... I guess some people prefer clean models :-) Sige, testbed pa lang naman to. I guess a cleaner model is much better.

Well Yayo01, I beg to disagree. To each his own I believe but look at reference pictures of Russain tanks during WW2. That's how they look like, VERY dirty. Consider the fact that this tank fought in Russia (Russia=snow+soil=MUD) and that the winter whitewash was made from lime I think w/c is easily worn even by water and that it also corrodes the underlying paint and metal (which also means a lot of rust and grime). Shonen did a pretty good job at it though. This is a distinct improvement Shonen! However I would like to point out that the brush strokes are showing.

from far away the tank look silver-ish IMO, the brush stroke is very visible, and if the rust in the tank is the effect water IMO the paint is somewhat wrong because they dont drip down towards the ground
