Got some more done to this. As I'm going to pose this with crew, the hatches will be open. But there's no detail on the inside of the hatch, so with a few bits and bobs from the spares box I've come up with this.

[Guest]

Good plan there Ian. Looking forward to seeing this come along.

I like the look of this six wheeled beast. It will be nice to see what you do with it.

I've started painting the driver as he will need to be fitted inside befor I can put the top on this.

Nice to see the driver installed. It did look like he had got on the wrong side of 'Vlad the impaler'

The way you build your figures Ian, p'raps you and Moni should set up a headless zombie GB!

oh lol  ,it dose make it a lot easier to paint,plus I,do like the zombie thing or the headless,tank driver,

 

[Guest]

Great looking driver figure Ian,   he's painted really well.


The Saladin is taking shape nicely, but might I suggest placing the figure next to the commander slightly lower in the hatch? That way his right elbow rests on the turret edge & looks much more natural.

Thanks for the tip Patrick but at the moment there just plonked in to show where they're going to be.
