Beautifully done - I'm wanting to try my first armor project and have this kit - it was recommended as pretty easy, which is how I want to start. Your build is an inspiration ! I wanted to check out your work in progress thread, but the link above doesn't work for me? Does it need updating? Or has it been removed? Would love to see it ----------!

Wow it's re-surfaced !!

Thanks guys, really appreciate the comments - I must admit that I was more than a little disappointed when I first posted this that it sank without trace so quickly. This was my first serious armour build after more years than I care to recall, (I still build mainly 1:72 & 48 aircraft). Sorry about the link, gentlemen, but I took it down some time back.

Once again, appreciate the comments,

Ian.
