Very nice that paint job is spot on 👍

Hi Antoine,nice work and a very interesting paint scheme👍 Onthe track problem you could ‘pin’ them, You can just see the pins above the second road wheel and just in front of forth one. HTH Ivan

Superb👌👌👌

Kind words indeed thank you👍 however the quality of this kit is outstanding (albeit expensive).as I’ve said the only issue I’ve had is it is probably a bit over engineered with some of the small parts. Ivan

Thanks mate I hope you have a very big magnifying glass when you start yours😂

Todays efforts here chaps😀bottom hoses on just some smaller ones and a power lead for the camera to go,then some minor repairs and clean up so should be close to done. cheers Ivan

Hi, a update😉 paint is on although it will need another wash,top hoses done I’ve made my own couplings as the kit ones are brilliant it’s just I couldn’t see them properly when they come off the block😳 bottom ones to go now and then just finishing the odds and ends. cheers Ivan

Carry on please😀

Hi there,well primer on and it’s ready to paint😀 just the hoses to go on after painting👍 Ivan

That’s very nice👍

Are the Russians going to compensate the farmer who’s shed they nicked? on a more serious note think how much all that extra weight degrades the tanks engine and suspension etc!

Take two on the top pipes,they look better than the wire I hope! bottom ones next. Ivan

Bit late on this one🙄 that has turned out very very nice indeed👍top job.

Top job mate that’s come out VERY well indeed 👌

Outstanding as usual!👌

Hi guys,this is going slowly now,all the rams are on and despite thinking I could have them moveable I have failed🙁ithe arms were far to loose and flopping all over the place and just crying out to break! As I’ve said before it is VERY brittle and I’ve broken a set of pipes cleaning them up so out with the card and wire! Half done,time for a break😀 the kit part is by the cupola so you can see the problem ,cheers Ivan

Superb workmanship👍

Thanks Pete I have seen those videos,beasts aren’t they? If you haven’t found War Machine TV on YouTube it’s well worth it for British kit roaming Salisbury plain👍 Ivan

Thanks Roger I’ve got the Full Width Mine Plough to go on as well but I’ll do that as a separate build I reckon😀

Well we can all spot what’s wrong with it!(NOT) 😂 outstanding job👌

Beginning to really take shape now,still the rams to go on but couldn’t resist having a play😀👍 cheers Ivan

Don’t think so mate they all have them they have been in service a few good years now.They are only classed as armoured when all the TES kit is put on.

Thanks Andrew,the triangles have ‘warning not armoured’ on them👍

Having a go at the fascine now,it was put to me over on armourama that maybe drinking straws could be used! Well here we go😀 only a quid from Asda instead of the 10 plus p&p for the AFV offering ! I’ll get some paint on and see how they look. Ivan

Nice and dirty👍 very nicely done👌
