I like to present you this figure, it’s from a new manufacturer Arsenal35, this a not usual matter, sure it will be welcome to accompaign the finnish tanks or like single figure also.
I start to paint the M-706, logically I start with the airbrush work, I used the excellent Vallejo Model Air’s colors, I did a color select for an optimal results.
1/ First coat is the Primer color, US Olive Drab Primer #608
2/ I obtain the base color mixing Model Air Olive Drab #043 with Bright #254 Brillo, ratio 5:2
3/ First lights ara doing adding more Bright #254, to the previous color, I apply it in the upper surfaces, I search a natural and cenithal ilumination
4/ For the second light I add Model Air Sand #075, to reinforced the previous light, to imitate the weathering for the use, this way I paint with little clouds, more in the horizontal surfaces and in the most used zones
5/ For the sahdowing I mix Olive Drab #043 with Russian Green #017, I apply it in the panel joints and in the bottom vehicle parts, to reinfor the shadows and enhance the volumes
6/ To finnish I apply the weathering sketch, with a red earth color, characteristic in the Vietnam Vehicles, I used the #035 Cam. Light Brown, later with the weathering I will reinforced this effects

Hi my Friends,
When I start to build this model, I think it will be an easy project, to enjoy the modelling before another one projects most difficult.
I’m wrong, this model is correct in the general shapes, but the plates cannot present the correct finishing with a little «cantliver», and I imitate it with Evergreen, besides the detail is poor, incorrect, etc, etc, 
. I must to enhance all the model with more Evergreen, copper wire and more home-cocked pieces.
I change the wheels for New Hope Miniatures resin set, I place it now only for the pictures.
Soon I hope to finish it and start soon to paint.
I hope you like it.
Buenas a Todos,
Os quiero enseñar como llevo el montaje de este bonito vehiculo, pero «truñaco» de maqueta.
Lo que iba a ser un plácido proyecto rápido para divertirse antes de otros de más enjundia, de montaje facil, pintura alegre y tema nuevo para mi, Vietnam, se ha convertido en una pesadilla de montaje, aunque las formas son correctas, la maquete adolece de detalles que se puedan definir como tales, no representa las soldaduras entre planchas que presentaban un pequeño vuelo, que tuve que reconstruir con varillas de evergreen y plastico estirado, soldaduras, muelles de portezuelas, antena, todo en exceso basto, fuera de escala y a veces con formas por llamarlas de alguna forma «caprichosas».
Al final me he liado la manta a la cabeza, y me he decidido a detallarlo todo, ya me queda menos, espero pronto empezar a pintar.
Sin mas rollo, os pongo unas fotillos, por cierto las ruedas, que solo están presentadas para las fotos, son de «New Hope miniatures», imprescindibles para sustituir las de plástico blando que siempre acaban por deteriorarse.
Espero os guste
