That’s a cracking shape! It screams “big sci fi tank” to me. What are your plans for painting this when it’s done? Is there a particular camo your going for?

Kubinka has the prototype in 3 colour camo. 
That or Russian green... lol  (my painting is passable at best!)
Got to keep it light as it'll be cast eventually so no heavy weathering.

Actually it would make a nice hover tank right now if I added a turret!

Track struts started.  Also is it wrong to get excited about decals?  Archer 3d weld beads

Looking good.

I've never seen those weld bead decals before. That looks handy.

BTW the best ref pics I've found are here:

The whole back end will be covered by what looks like an extended range fuel tank (An ill advised shape in itself!)
