February 16 update
Hello everybody
Turret finished, done with ordinary non-slip layer of sand. Results were pretty good, acceptable. Here are the latest pictures. Please give me advice.
Thank you
Blackwater

Ordinary sand, feeling like a pepper bottle.

No effect of color


After priming effect, some small areas also need to clean up. So the paint dry.






Hope you like, any comments are welcome.

AWESOME!!!

The tip of the common sand in a pepper bottle is useful indeed

How did you glue the sand on plastic?


Impressive work. I like a lot

Hi Mauro
Model using ordinary glue on it, painted in the need to place non-slip floor. Then sprinkle sand. This is not very clear, so take a process, I will post pictures out.
I'm glad you like it.

So the thickest one, not the thinnest (green cap)

Here in Europe the thickest tamiya glue is sold in an exagonal bottle with an orange top

Thanks a milion for the tip

I think I'll follow it when I'll do a Merkawa

Anti-slip layer, the production process, this is not the best approach. But it is easy to operate, can be a good show non-slip floor texture.
Thank you for your attention
Blackwater


A very important tool, a green tea bag. It has a very small hole, you can easily filter out the 1 / 35 tank skid layer of small grains of sand required.

Filter out the fine sand

A: Common sand
B: filtered coarse.
C: fine sand

Simple tools

Glue coating can be more, because it dried very quickly.




Produced using the same method Merkava MK1




Hope you will like this method.

Amazing model.
I served for three years in this tank,antil this tank was out of regular service, Now it serves only reserve.
I must say that the model is similar enough to reality, if you need pictures I will be happy to send you.
by the way this tank never called magach batash this is the first time i'm hearing this name, it's name was magach dor daled (Fourth generation armor)

Hi emanuel
Thank you for your reply and comments, in fact my picture is not much useful information.
Reference to the complete transformation of the legendary photo, if you can, I need real pictures of the vehicle.
Thanks again.
