Thanks, Eric. After seeing Rad’s awesome machine gun effect I would like to have a soldier on the passenger side spraying out some lead. I’m bad about copying cool stuff I see on this forum :{
But yes, I’m looking foreword to receiving my model and starting this project. They high quality of their models makes it worth the wait.

So Jim,
Is that to say that Miss Leningrad is officially done? Once again, I find myself drooling over it in your videos. I keep noticing more details every time. I really love the early exhaust stacks on it. The reduced diameter exhaust ports really constrict the smoke from that great Baroness 2 unit and allow a very tight, high exhaust pattern. Under power it reminds me of the heavily modified tractors at tractor pulls. I think I'm developing a unhealthy fixation with that girl. You do know that you owe all of us a great detailed video with Boje now that she's complete. We're waiting!
Regards,
Eric.

Right on, my man! Next couple of days I’ll get her out on maneuvers and shoot a bit of fresh video. However I can’t claim that it’s a product of my own. She was only made possible because of several members on this forum as a group effort which defiantly prohibits me from claiming it as “my” tank. It belongs to the forum.
I most certainly appreciate your accolades but can’t take 100% credit for her success. She’s a product of this most awesome forum without a doubt!

Jim,
It's very humble of you to say so. This place is pretty darn amazing. I've only been a member for a short time, but the others on here are gracious, knowledgeable, eager to help, and probably the most creative, inventive, and bright people I have ever had a chance to deal with. Everyone take a bow, you all have earned it my opinion!
Respectfully,
Eric.
P.S. eagerly awaiting the video.

Catherine will share progress after i have built the first prototype to trial fit of all the parts and tested their strength etc
All the doors and hatches and windshield should fold nicely
We just need to try and work on some of the small details now

Seeing the process of designing and producing models is fascinating! You two are truly a dynamic duo.
