this is the first time doing the Merkava. all was ok, however..be careful when doing the tow cable. its bendable, but...one you paint it..it is too brittle and it broke. that's why its missing. other than that, its a good build and not many parts too it.

the colors I used to get the Israeli defense force colors was 50% Tamiya light grey, and 50% Tamiya khaki.
