M3talpig Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) Just a small update ................. Zimmerit around the tool racks finished and detail added to hinge pin on the dislodged hatch. Some shrapnel marks and flaking zimmerit around the shell impact...more to be done though Rear deck was missing a lot of zimmerit but flakes of it can be seen in photos so copied as best as possible small details like this i'm hoping will help with the burned out look. Mud fenders for the front are nearly done ...and i'm currently weaving some fine grade wire for the chains and clips for the tool stations Edited November 21, 2020 by M3talpig 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasper dog Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 W T H !!!! Jeeez dude you're a nutter! You don't make Fabergé eggs for a bit of r&r do you? Just a thought..... how hard could it be for you to make a working 75mm breech with recoil, might give it that edge ....😉 Great work on finishing the hull, perhaps? As for the gun cleaning tube..... Hope alls well bud, atb. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
