Both AFV Club M41 kits, one of them is an ex-Skybow kit. Both of them got a good amount of details letting the vehicles look quite realistic. I won’t use AFV Club mud guards as this variant wasn’t in use with Lebanese M41 tanks. The ex-Skybow got the required mud guards type to represent a Lebanese vehicle.

I use the U.S. Light Tank M41 Walker Bulldog Type 91E3 Workable Track Link from AFV Club, which comes out to be easy building and gives out a realistic touch.

One of the two M41 is now done, it’s the one used in 1969 by the Lebanese Army during clashes at the borders.

I hope to finish the second tank this coming week…
