Here is Tamiya's 1/35 scale Challenger I Mk.3. This
vehicle of the Desert Rats is depicted during the Gulf War of 1991
It's built straight from the box, except for the cover of turret basket
(made of Tissue and white glue), and it was painted with Testor enamels.
I have used, for weathering, a general wash done with oil color thinned
in mineral spirit, several light coats of airbrushed dark sand along
the edges and a final drybrushing with light sand and aluminium.
The lower hull it was finally airbrushed with a shade
of color similar to dust.
