looking awesome LLoyd! wheels look particularly awesome...great work

just a little trick I picked up...to get rid of mold lines in tricky parts like the spring you speak of just bust out the trusty extra thin...brush it along the line and then brush the glue inside all the grooves, keeping it wet with glue so as not to start "pulling" the plastic as it softens. keep it wet and brushing and watch the line disappear. when the part dries it will be shiny from the glue but the line will be gone and all the detail will remain. I used this trick on my Russian Terminator on the rocket launchers and it worked perfectly. Once the paint is on the shiny goes away with no apparent adverse affects to the following top coats.

just a little tip for this situation...because the holes have locating spots inside the tank that are pre drilled slightly, the plastic is much thinner...take a bright light and shine it through the turret hole...due to the plastic in the hole locations being thinner you will be able to see the light bleed through in those spots, giving you a very good indication of where to drill if having to go from the exterior...ask me how I know lol. gotta say that in a pinch this little trick works like a charm.
