Nice work on the Lee kit MC! I remember when I could knock out an old Tamiya armor kit over a weekend, once upon a time. The single length vinyl tracks helped for speeding that part of a build up. For most post WWII Western and WWII US tanks, the lack of sag is accurate from that type of track. Which M3 Lee Kit is that?

Thanks Carlos.
It's the 70's Hasegawa kit. Still written in all Japanese and the decals were old and broke up, even wit the help of Micro Scale decal restorer. After stretching the track all around, there was a 1/4" gap. I finally goy it though.

Started on the LCS today and after many tiny pieces and loads of tiny PE this is how far i got.

I'm hoping to get several more builds done in 21. I think this my worst year in my building number.

Well this is an amazing lineup so far. Congrats on finishing that Lee in one day. I'm looking forward to seeing that LCS done.

Very nice. Wonder if anyone has one that has a detailed interior and is cutaway?

That is one impressive looking build! :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout:

How large is that turret? I mean in actual size. I suspect that the giant penny of model ship building will not be giant next to that turret. :hmm:
