Thanks for all the ideas and inspiration chaps.

I was having a chat with my mate Roddy at work and we reckon on a grey/geen body, white turret with the hino maru (Japanese flag) painted on the the turret so the rays of the sun start at the hatch and go all the way down to the base of the turret (the hatch of course being red, thanks to Jollybob  :) )

Painting to start after Warfare

cheers

Great job James :-* :-* :-*
Love the design.
Not sure from the pictures but has it three or four legs  ???
Anymore pictures please. :D

Again I am extremely jealous of all the bits and pieces you have access to.
The legs and feet are lovely. But I agree with Dewbakuk, pistons would make it look more old fashioned.
The turret could do with some more rivets as well. As well as some more handles up the side of the turret, so the pilot can reach the hatch.
What’s the main body made out of?
Like the colour scheme idea of the green body and the flag on the turret 8)

Looking forward to see this monster painted!

Reckon the Japanese have upped the stakes in the upcoming battle.  His Majesty's forces look like they will have their hands full.

Love it! Don't change a thing in the design. As for colour, most of the suggestions given would work. Are you leaning any way so far?

Pah! Her Majesty's forces will be fine, besides we like being the underdog in a battle, makes the victory look even better... ;)
