ACADEMY

Messerschmitt Bf109K-4 German Fighter Academy 1/48

It is Academy Bf109K-4. It had a gun barrel made of metal. This is the symbol of the red tulip markings of Colonel Hermann Graf, who is the 52nd fighter wing (JG52) commander. I like that it has a Cartograf decal.

AIRCRAFT GERMANY

M10 GMC U.S. Army Tank Destroyer Academy 1/35

It's the Academy's M10 destroyer tank. I used a strong primer because the belt caterpillar is hard and doesn't seem to stick to the paint. Marking is the Free French 5th panzer division developing it in Germany in April 1945.

AFV FRANCE

Merkava Mk. IV Israeli Main Battle Tank Academy 1/35

This is an Academy's Merkava Mk. IV. There is no anti-slip coating on the turret and the upper surface of the tank, so I tried to express using Tamiya's scene texture paint. The chain skirt work was extremely troublesome.
