This week return to MBT, but from Eastern Country. Current mass produced main force in PLA: ZTZ-99A. Nowadays AFV like to use digital camo, it may looks cool, but not easy to recreate in 1/72 scale if not using decals or masking one-by-one. I just free hand paint the pixel pattern on green chassis, so not rigid and align enough. 就這樣 2023 年第六十作 (累計上色成品第 三 五 三 號) 入櫃了。
