just made a start on this hopefully I'm going to do a diorama so I can use the figures that come with it also going to use the stowage set I've had for a while not sure what resin tank crew to use was leaning towards the 2 bailing out sets but now thinking of using the ordinary tank crew anyway more soon

Nice start


Wow! You have some brilliant complements there!!

Nice start Steve.


Myself I'd use the normal crew, but its your build. Looking forward to more updates

Hi thanks for your replys yes I'm leaning more towards the normal crew

Just a quick update got all the wheels painted and attached to the bogies and then attached all the wheels and bogies to the lower hull have sprayed the lower hull because I find it easier this way

Just caught up with this one and this is looking superb ( I do like the shading you've done and those bogies are very crisp in detail ( good paining ) wish my painting went as smooth at times!!


Like the crew you have nice detail


I'll jump on board for the finale if that's ok Steve??


Kind regards


Robert
