Leopard 2 A6 M

This is my first EVER modern vehicle, built as a commission. It's the Tamiya base kit, with the Perfect Scale Modellau A6M update set, which consists of a mine-resistant belly plate, new smoke dischargers and front sand fenders. It also featured a metal barrel from ARMO [really excellent], Tamiya etched metal stowage bins and a Lion Roar etch update set.

It was painted in Tamiya acrylics, and weathered in oils. The decals were from the kit, and I couldn't find any specific unit markings for A6M's in German service -- they're aren't many around I believe.

It was a really enjoyable project, although I was a little daunted as it was "modern" and therefore outside of my comfort zone, but I'm pretty happy with the results.
Modern vehicle fans - let me know what you think. I'd welcome feedback.

Cheers, Dave
