Thanks for the compliments, guys.
I'm under no illusions to my skills as a modeler, and not having an airbrush sets me at an even further disadvantage when it comes to certain subjects, like armor.
The kit was released in 2004, I'm not entirely certain of how easily available it still is, I found mine at a local hobby shop in Phoenix.
Dragon has one out that's almost as nice, and in the same scale, too, and it's also easy to find at most online hobby shops.
Should you be interested in getting the Pegasus edition, be warned that I had some difficulty with the fit of the suspension; the hull sat too high.
I was forced to sand down the lower hull to bring it closer to actual ground clearance, which removed a noticeable amount of the glacis plates. That, and the suspension itself comprises 12 sub-assemblies of 8 parts apiece; removing the sprue attachments and mold seams on 48 road wheels was tedious. Getting those sub-assemblies to sit flat and ninety degrees to the hull was also somewhat challenging. After mounting the bogie attachments to the hull, I dry fitted the trucks to the bogie attachments and cautiously glued them in place without so much as breathing on them.
The only other criticism, and it's a slight one, is that the surface detail of the hull sides and turret are of different styles; a couple swipes of sandpaper, re-surfacing with some CA glue, a couple more swipes with the paper again, and you'd never know.
The kit's a lot of fun, almost entirely open to interpretation as to color schemes, and gets my highest recommendation.
