Description Decided to fight boredom by taking a snap on an old abrams model I have sitting on shelf and.

Tinkered with it in photoshop to make it a little more gritty and realistic looking not sure if I succeeded or not you tell me ?!

M1A2 Abrams Iraq 1:72 FOV Diecast model.

It looks amazing, however something looks off with the track rollers and the barrel, but I don't know what exactly...

Cheers =], The tracks are flexible rubber rather than actual solid links which is probably why they look a little off although not sure what could be up with the rollers as they're similar to some photos I've seen: [link]

Cheers but in fairness the model is die-cast metal and was already pre-painted so I cant really take much credit it.

Heres how it would have looked new [link] I just made it look a little worn and beat up.

the tank looks real but the backround makes him look like he's in giant land

=< I did attempt to make it fit better with some diorama pieces and such but doesn't look like I pulled it off.

Looks great, love the 'this way up' tag on the rear and it's cinematic look
