Sorry I was referring to the undercarriage light. Your probably right about the upper wing light. I was guessing with that one.

Yeah, the wing tip light is the one I’m referring to. Probably the way the light refracts through it. On the undercarriage it very well could appear green, I have a photo somewhere…
I was unaware of this when I originally posted. Read Devil 505’s response a few posts down.

I added the fuel tanks as well. I’m not sure if I should have painted the the same color as the upper fuselage or black even. But it’s already done so. They are the same as the undercarriage

I finally have something to post in this topic. After letting this sit for 3 months I’m back at the bench for some marathon airbrush sessions. Got the 3 colors and gloss clear on this finally. There’s some areas that need touch up.

The mesh is PE and the frames are styrene. I used Starbond Black CA and they were pretty easy.

Matt, very happy to see that bad boy coming along! Looking good!
Hopefully will spray Mr Surfacer on this beast this coming weekend.
Decided, the sides were too smooth to suit me and added a bit of texture. The open sponsons, will have to be patched of course. Probably one of the better 1980’s era Tamiya kits overall.
Working on turret assemble…
Yeah, my next Sherman isn’t going that dinky 75mm definitely going to be a 76mm version.
Calling it a day

Wade,
Norm S came up with a useful template to fix the sponson issue.

Very Cool. I still want to get an Israeli Centurion. I forget what it’s called. But it was in the Lebanon War.

AFV Club makes a few IDF Centurion variants similar to this Sho’t Kal. This one was pretty muc hscratch built though.
If you’re looking for one just do a search for AFV Club Centurion and all of their different offerings will pop up.
