M48A5 by Tom Willoughby






Another fine display model from Tom Willoughby.

It is an Acadamy M48A5 built to represent one of the American National Guard tanks that Tom crewed. It is a commission for an old treadhead veteran. It's in summer verdant, MERDAC cammo used into the late 80s. Tom has deliberately been light on the weathering compared to most National Guard tank as he wanted to display the model in clean condition.

  1. And if you peek into the driver's compartment, you can see a little figure of me in there! Because that was the tank I drove!
