Badder Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Excellent work Francis. I like it a lot. One little thing I've noticed, and I hope you don't mind me pointing it out, but it's where you've removed one of the front track guards. Half of the hinge mechanism would still be visible welded to the tank. Assuming you still have the part, it wouldn't be too difficult to slice off the whole hinge, cut out the alternate 'barrel-shaped bits' and fix the remainder to the tank? I hope you are going to put your model in a diorama. I think a large beast like this would look superb in any setting. Regards. Martin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much for your kind comments, and if yep, I have the piece. It does not bother me at all (even if you put it so so friendly and polite). It is an interesting detail, not knowing that was welded (perhaps a beast of 65 tons, when moving in combat, it does so with less grace than a bull in a glassware, and could also lose ... lol ) I delayed somewhat, because in addition I have to make new pictures wherever I look, and be with Reflex (I will pay my brother)I'll try to put it to make it well, and thanks for the tip Badder . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robw_uk Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 nice work, love the little damaged areas and the missing exhaust cover, just adds variation to the finish - and of course the painting & weathering is 1st class 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to do the best I can with what I have. Thanks to Martin, I could improve a little bit the model, therefore, although very little, something delayed me .

FrancisGL Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 Hi folks, probably the last picture pack progress in thread. I can only review errors (which I see ... lol ) correct, but add some details.This series of photos are with SLR, so the tone is different (and more approximate to the real) and the detail level higher. I hope you have enjoyed with the assembly as much as I (I think even more, because the headaches I had to solve myself ... :hanging:lol). As soon as I have finished including a link to the finished model and its mounting thread to another. Greetings and thanks chaps for watch and comment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badder Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 That's very nice indeed Francis. I particularly like the fact that you've left half of the hinge where t!he front track guard got ripped off. So many people forget!
