This is the 1/72 Merkava Mk IV by HobbyBoss built for our "Speed Build". It is box stock (of course) and painted with Velejo paints in the "black basing" method. It was primered in flat black, and then painted with Model Air paint that had extra thinner added. The color is called Hemp and is what Valejo recommend for modern IDF armor. A very nice little kit.
I know this is a little late, but I only just came across the photos. Costumes for your armored vehicle on Halloween.
First is a Taiwanese APC desguised as a crain. This is apparently so that the vehicle might survice a Red Chinese invasion.
The second is an Idaho National Guard Humvee dressed up as a T-72 tank during training exorcises.
Possible modeling subjects? The APC is doable, but you may need to know how to sew to do the Humvee.
