M1A1 Abrams 3rd ID US Army OIF

This is the base Tamiya kit built out of the box. The stowage came mainly from the kit, (the kit has a sprue from Tamiya’s Modern Equipment set), but the Coke box, Arabic Water boxes, and USPS mailing box all came from a internet source. The “tool box” handles are resin replacement pieces from Tiger Model Designs. The tarp was added from Kleenex and white glue, and the periscopes are all made from reflective party confetti. It was pPainted with acrylics from Polly S, Testors, and Tamiya. Light weathering as it was a commission build.
