Pete,
Great to see you at the bench again and congrats on the medal. This build is really starting to look the business, you must be pleased with it, I would be.
Cheers, Mike.

You can't beat a medal win to get the modelling juices rolling again. Two wonderful updates Peter. Your work never disappoints. Will you be adding any stowage?

Hi Steve thank you, I was the most shocked person in the biulding and it was first medal ever :smiling4:. As for stowage there will be some in the turret side baskets.

Hi Mike, thank you I can't really believe it to be honest, if you would be happy with it I'm over the moon :upside:.

Hi I hope you don't mind if I have another go and try and finish it.
Put together the turret, removed molding that I'll be replacing with some bling.[ATTACH=CONFIG]n[/ATTACH]

I'd better get my books out then, don't want to be up before the SM on a charge for mending something that wasn't broken in the first place, know what I mean :smiling5: :smiling5: :smiling5: .

Cheers Si, though it's a old kit it goes together without any problems, no flash and hardly any horrible seam lines.

Me to Pete. Its a great AFV to build. Looking really good. Much more construction to do before the hairy sticks come out??
