Some of you may remember i dont like doing modern tanks, so this one is going to be a double trouble.

Well this is what was in the box when i opened it, seem's my boss likes to start them then give it away.

I think me & Mr S. knife need a talk again, lol.

Going to try & split the turret & get the hatche's to work and get a better fit with the barrel & go from there.

Wish me luck.

John

I feel for you having to dis-assemble before even getting on with the build mate ...

Still it looks ok so far in your images John, keep us up to date ok.
 
Good luck bro, Even tho it looks like a breeze as youve done a bit after a few hrs work.

I think im a little slow on the building of my models.

I've considered this one myself, John. I'm sure it will be a great build.
