I really like it! Just the right amount of grime too.

Just right! Looks great.

Clint & Lyle, thanks for your kind words.

Today I got the upper hull glued in place. Starting to look like a tank now!





I need to deal with one seam on the bottom rear and then I can add all of the last little bits to complete the hull

That's gotta feel good to be at this stage with it Carlos. Getting close to paint now eh?

Not quite at the painting stage yet. I need to add all the final bits on the hull, then build the turret. I will be doing a few changes on the turret to backdate it, so that will add some time. After that is texturing and some other final details before I get to the painting stage. My estimate is a couple or three weeks if all is well.

Back in the saddle on this one today

I added the small bits to the rear of the hull



and began adding the small bits to the front of the hull



Not much longer until hull construction is done...

Excellent work Carlos, that power-pack looks the business!

Thanks Stuart. I finally finished up adding all the little tiny bits to the hull this afternoon. I’ll get some photos up later.

As promised, finally some update photos. Had company visit last week, so no bench time while prepping the house...

I finally finished all the basic construction on the hull. It was pointed out to me that the hull attachment point for the rear fenders was inaccurate. So I modified them to look more like the real thing.





And I added all of the little bits to the front of the hull



Now I just need to add the cast armor texturing and casting marks to the hull

Any progress is good progress.
