Hooray! Something armor related! Armor builds often are fast... It's the finishing process that slows 'em down...

Oh, interesting. I have build some Dragon 1/144 armoured trains. This one looks very good.

Looking good Kermit, and it sounds like you finished yours as quickly as I finished mine. It only took me about a day to finish painting and decaling, and then I got the weathering done he following day. Nothing like a relaxing three-day build to help things along! Looking forward to seeing the rest of this.
