Redcoat2966 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Nice attention to detail Steve.....looking good. Love the track rack and the differences to the norm........might try and do an actual vehicle build one day....might add a bit of time on my already extended build times though ....looks like it's worth it though.

M3talpig Posted October 28, 2020 Author Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) Spare track links and track pins added nothing is glued in place so they can be removed when painting comes up.....the zimmerit has also been added to the area around the tracks the last of the zimmerit will be added as the remaining tool racks are made then placed Starting to look pleasantly busy and below is a shot of one of the many lengths of chain i need to make Edited October 28, 2020 by M3talpig 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longbow Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Yup.... I'm gobsmacked, and have nothing to say either You need to save all of these Great builds for when Telford opens up. So, what happened to Euro Militaire, at Folkston ? Anyone care to tell me ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy J Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 So knowing how much Steve enjoys my stories here's another which took place only a short while ago........twas a chilly Wednesday night and I was busy going back through this thread. I reached the pic's of the rear end of the main hull showing Steve creating the battle damage. Mrs J is eavesdropping over my shoulder and says "why would you leave a like for that if you dropped your tank on the floor and smashed it you'd be crying for a month " !!!! When I explained that the damage was deliberate she replied " oh I see.....you have some strange friends on that forum ........however it's no excuse to leave a mean comment " At this point i simply left the room, banging one's head against a brick wall comes to mind 🙄 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
