M1A2 Abrams Sepv2 Academy

Let’s start the new project abrams from academy, I also bought t-rex tracks and afv club anti reflection stickers and I’m planing to buy metal gun barrel. Abrams is going to be Polish in single color green polygon camo or 3 tone nato camo (however the tank in the picture with nato camo isn’t sepv2 but sepv3).

Ooooh i’m going to stick around for this one - great project!

I’ll try my best making this kit but it’s going to be a long journey…

I’m interested to see how the tracks look like when sitting on the model.
Like metal tracks from Friul, there have separate axles to join 2 track pads.
Good luck !

I didn’t think Poland was getting M1A2 SEP v2s. In the other thread on Polish Abrams (below), you yourself stated they are now getting M1A1 FEPs and in '24 getting M1A2 SEP v3s and will be converting the FEPs to M1A2 SEP V3s as well.

Poland recieved around 25 abrams sepv2 to train our soldiers on abrams, we will give them back as soon as first sepv3 arrive

Finally after more than 2 months decided to go back to this kit.

I’m pacing back/forth myself, trying to resist the urge to start working on one of the two SEP v2 Abrams kits i have in my stash.

From which company? Rfm, academy, voiio or Dragon?

One is a Ryefield, the other one is a Dragon.

After another month I have finally had some time for modeling. Finished one track which took me approximately 5 hours but honestly I think that it was worth it.

The second track is assembled. Finally after few hours the worst and the most boring part of building a model ended.

The hull is finished and it took me less than assembling tracks.

Build looking good so far. Don’t forget to leave the center caps clear (you probably already know this). A little clear smoke in the center would look good to replicate the oil inside the hubs.

(Older center caps)

I consider making this model muddy so clear parts are probably not going to be visible but thanks for reminding.

As for color schemes, i would go with the single color dark green.
