Very well done indeed - particularly like the texture on the turret.

Is that a Peddinghaus Tetra decal you used for the fire extinguisher?

thanks guys,yes mate they are peddinghaus decals,my aim is to have the turret numbers part coverd buy spare tracks(if i get my hands on any :/ )
i got some schumo tow cables and some verlinden figures from welshdragonmodels yesterday(realy great service :thumbup: ) and i dipped the cables in AK interactive metal burnishing agent,i will later paint the metal parts on the towcables and give the cable itself a rub over with sandpaper to bring back a little bit of the steel colour,last night i made a figure from parts of the verlinden set and sometime soon i'll get the dremel and putty on him and radio headset attached and painted,here is a couple of pics of the test fitting of both items.

Hey brooksy,

Lookin great brother, I to have those Schumo Tow Ropes, just a tip. Run a flame under them to burn off all the little fuzzy wuzzies. Schumo has a string under the metal strands. Just helping out...

Keep the great pics coming.
