Thanks Ozzy, think this is the last 1/16th build unless something really sexy comes past. The T-72 would have been nice but its with no interior so not really interested in that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremlin56 Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share Posted April 1, 2017 April 1st update. Last storage racks fitted and filled. Might bring me up to sealing HD Judy next weekend. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookytooth Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I think that we can safely say that there is not a lot of room left at all. Looks great inside. Simon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremlin56 Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 2/4 update. Heavy Duty Judy is all sealed up. There is some tidying up left to do on some seams and the forward joint of lower hull and upper hull needs some epoxy glue to fix the join properly. All and everything fits quite well. HD Judy looks rather massive with the 128mm barrel and "Sow's head" shield fitted. Looking forward to the paint job 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookytooth Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Very impressive Gremlin, I am still staggered by the size of her. It is going to be one large paint job, industrial rollers and spray gun touch LOL. Simon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gremlin56 Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 7/4 update. Build is completed bar some PE parts and the rear MG mount. I'll finish that this weekend and do some filling and cleaning here and there, maybe get a base coat on. Waiting on an order from Germany before starting on the paint job: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookytooth Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Looks awesome Gremlin. I take it the order from Germany is an industrial spray gun and compressor.LOL Simon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremlin56 Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 Hi Simon, thank you kind sir! Er no, I already have an industrial compressor that I use for my Badgers and before you ask no, there is not a tanker full of paint under way either. I ordered some Panzer Putty, Mr. dissolved putty and the Revell 1/32 Spitfire IX that was just issued, whomping big cannon in the wingie parts, nice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
