Pete,

Cheers Paul, this is a very modern tank for a toon so something new for me.
I've been learning loads as you can guess, one thing I'm doing is upgrading most if not all of the tracks on what I've already built.

Keep well

Hi Pete, I didn't see a minion in sight so you must have had your hands full getting all the mods done. That barrel is impressive. :thumb2:

Dead smart, Pete. Really nice work.

But wouldn't it have been a lot easier to paint on the digital camouflage. before adding all the bits and bobs? It certainly was on the models I've tackled with this type of camouflage.

just a thought.....

Shame to cover all of that great detailing with paint. Looking good :thumb2:

Thanks Rick the barrel that comes with the kit is not good at all and to be honest my offering could be any worst.
