Fantastic work. I'm really looking forward to hearing how we can get our hands on them

A watched printer never prints, and we are watching oh so much....

Any idea on release dates for this?

Rich H · « **Reply #51 on:** May 13, 2019, 09:43:07 AM »

It's been printing over night so not been watching honest! It's a lack of support or faield support - trying a new resin and it's being problematic (but it does give amazingly sharp results)

No release date yet, I've not even finished drawing the hull yet...

Any sign of Hot Tubs in this one?

Mark,
Is there any chance of doing spare track links - nearly every photo of M48s in combat I've seen had several track runs hanging from their turrets?
Looking great so far - will definitely be getting one (or two!) to go with my Empress Marines.

Not sure if Mark can help... But I can probably manage a few spare links

There is a whole pile of tat that would be useful (matching scale Jerry cans, ammo boxes etc).

Track links would be good. Most other impedimentia can be readily found in either 1/56 or 1/48 versions. I think I have enough Tamiya jerry cans to last me a lifetime. The one thing that might be worth doing as extra kit are the Mermite hot and cold food canisters. These are frequently seen in photos of tanks, strapped to the turret basket, sometimes in the canister or just the individual containers alone.

Sometimes it takes a few goes to get right...

Bottom one is finally perfect!

Is that the left one or the right one (my vote is on left).

@Carlos - I just got a Tamiya 1/48 scale Jerry cans set, I see what you mean.
