Type 97 Chi-Ha

The Chi-Ha was the most produced medium tank of the IJA. Later in the war, it received a new turret and a more powerful 47mm AT gun, that version was known as the Type 97 Kai.
Here are some pictures of the real tank:

@deepstrasz Well, I was told by Herr Dave to use the British tank texture for the Japanese Army tanks.
That and the fact that this texture is much more versatile and easier to use than the green (Russian tanks) texture.
 
@deepstrasz Re-wrapping the model again is not easy, as there are a lot of details that I pulled off by this texture that I cannot redo with another one, such as the rivets or the black edges.

So I could make a green version, but it won't look as good as this one.
