Carro Armato M13/40 in Australian Service

This is the vererable Tamiya M13/40 finished as one of the 6th Australian Divisional Cavalry vehicles at Tobruk in 1941. It's basically out of the box, with Accurate Armour ammo box stowage and "flimsy" rack. I added some cast texture with a liquid poly/green putty mix, and created the Kangaroo stenctil by tracing the kit decal onto transparent plastic film, cutting it round with a new X-Acto blade. It worked quite well, and allowed me to add more Kangaroos than the kit options; photos show them painted all over the tank. The vehicle was painted Italian green, with a rough sand overspray. The figure is by Tamiya, from the Churchill set I think.
