Very nice work Rich!

Rich H · « **Reply #47 on:** January 20, 2018, 01:35:03 PM »

Thanks.

I'm struggling with the sides. The ribby bits are really subtle more like dents than deliberate! Might have to leave them off

They might look more like casting imperfections than actual details yeah.

This is looking great

Superb work there. I'm feeling rather ashamed of the straight lines on my small build.

I long for a straight line...

Its cold in the garage so not started on the tracks yet. Working on the back deck and hull details

That looks superb.

Just incredible!

I'm glad I'm aiming for wonky on my build rather than accurate straight lines, I've nowhere near the patience for that 😣

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!)

Would you say the tank has an extended rear?

Rich H · « **Reply #55 on:** January 20, 2018, 10:35:41 PM »

A fat arse?

Added the weld lines to the front. I'm going to ignore the other lines as I assume they aren't really supposed to be seen.

Hopefully tomorrow I can escape form the domestic duties (moving a radiator int he bathroom...) to get the lasering started. I need some bits for the fat arse and transmission. Then I can start on the track units. I'm ignoring the turret for now...

Weld lines. They took AAAAAGGES to get even approximately symmetrical....

Not sure if I can bear to do the underside welds...

(Probably will )

I’ve never tried those decals before. How do they stick on? The same as normal decals? Just with water?

Johnnytodd · « **Reply #58 on:** January 20, 2018, 11:58:43 PM »

That's really looking good! Makes me want to build another tank!
