Tamiya 1/35th scale M48A3 Patton, marked for some USMC unit in Vietnam.
The main story behind this model is that the unbuilt kit was blown off my carport by a terrible dust storm one summer. The box vanished entirely, as did the instructions, but after wandering around in the desert for a while I found the bagged parts wedged in a bush and the tracks scattered across the ground. So I built it without the box and without the instructions, so I'm pretty sure I didn't get the decals on right, and I'm not sure the pintle-mounted .50-cal machine gun is right either. But it's not bad for guessing, I suppose, and the paint isn't bad for having come out of a spray can.
