So finally, here’s my Zaku Tank. I’m know it’s not spectacular like the other entries but I had fun doing this kitbash, first time kitbash I should say, with Master Grades. This was actually another first time with using an airbrush kit as well for me and it took me some trial and error to get the mixing ratios correct. Anyway, I wish everyone good luck in placing!

  That looks way better than my first airbrush kit. Great job dude

    Hey, thanks! I really appreciate that! I also don’t mind getting some tips and criticism so I can avoid any problems in the future. My main folly while building/kitbashing this was the mixing ratio for the Tamiya X-21 Flat Base. I didn’t do research about it so my mind stuck with that 1:1 ratio but little did I know that the proper mixing ratio was 10:1, so you could imagine the horror on my face when I noticed it started frosting over the layer of paint. xD
