Faun Elefant & Leopard 2A4

By: Eyal Reinfeld

Manufacturer(s): Revell, Dragon

Modifications: Added cables from wire and putty, camo net from gause and tea from teabags, Crew members are reworked Preiser's figures with putty, locking chains and cables from PE and putty.

After-market parts: PE sets by Eduard (two sets), figures from Preiser (Luftwaffe crew). chains from ABER.

Description: The kit shows an Faun Elefant tank transporter carrying a Leopard 2A4 on an exercise. There are some thinks to improve on the finished model, and if I had any motivation left after so much work I would have scratched a gun lock instead of the molded one on the tank. The model was painted in Tamiya's acrylics, wethered with oils and pigments. It is an impressive model, I wish that Revell would release the Franczeska version as well, as the Elefant is really limited in terms of cargo.
