Egad! What a great lookin' Abrams! (And I still love the turbo sound.) I wonder if someday I could make my Abrams half as good.

Love how it sounds and moves! The lighting really makes these modern tanks shine (get it?). Out of sheer curiosity, why do run it mostly with turret facing the rear?

That’s very cool! I suppose it saves a lot of space during transporting and parking and such. Maybe even going down a sharp embankment so as not to plant your muzzle in the dirt. Enjoying your progress!

Minor repaint. Got rid of some of the green. I did order the realistic camp netting and I’ll add that to the turret and barrel. It’s almost finished minus the new tracks and the top of the turret details.
