1/35 M1A2 Abrams

Hello all,

I completed Ryefield’s 1/35 M1A2.
The MILES system and its wiring was made a challenge for this project to reconstruct.
the previous forum gave me great advices.
For these gentlemen,I have to say again thank you.

Thank you for everyone, watching my work!
I want to add some pictures during building. MILES bands made by “Pla-Paper” of TAMIYA and micro cables for real-robot industrial product .The actual cables seem to be categorized by several color-tie. These are a good effect to add vividness to the low visible object. Luggages and the cover seat in the Bustle-basket, it’s also my preferences.

Very nice finish. And the MILES adds a lot in terms of originality.
May I suggest you paint the cartridges in the M2 HMG feed chute.

Oliver,

Your mention is pertinent, thank you.
Honestly say, I was wondering if I should paint the metal color on the cartridge too. As you know, M2 Browning bullets are held together in two sets by bands, and we can barely see them from outside in case of M153 CROWS’s feed chute. It would be optimal if I could paint the metal color around the inside, but it looked difficult, so I’m pausing that task.

Impressive details! Thanks for posting, I will have this as a reference for my coming build! :slight_smile:
