Tamiya 1/35 Russian T62-A

Finished my first armor kit! It's a Tamiya 1/35 Russian T62-A Tank. The build was purely for an informal group build at Mechapinoy, but its also a good break or mental build away from Gundams. I really enjoy this build because its different from what I usually do... from the assembly to painting. I've learned a lot of new techniques, used some new tools which is pretty exciting for me. Im also not sure if I did an accurate or historically correct build for the kit. Comments and suggestions will be very helpful. Thanks and hope you guys like it!

Good looking tank! Always liked the design. It's kinda clean though and could benefit from some dust and mud effects.

Welcome to armor building. Get ready to spend more time doing it, once you build one you can't stop. Trust me on that

It does look really nice. My next armor kit is the Trumpter T-62, as soon as the Voyager PE sets come out and I finish the ones I'm working on now.

Great job for your first armor.  I guess my only suggestion is that it has a little to much sheen to it.  I think your weathering would pop a little more if it were flat.

Wahou ! very nice i like the old school design. You did a nice job on this one. Don't listen to mike Armor are not always dirty. you should take a look at his car

Actually... my car is FILTHY! It's a great example of rain-marks and winter sludge on a civilian vehicle.

Thank you for the inputs sirs. All comments are noted.

mvm3897: actually its flat in person, i think the sheen is caused by my cam's exposure.
