My Super Pershing v2.0

Post by EddyK »

So it happened, that in the May I bought full option Tamiya Super Pershing from Frank Heritage:

And there it is together with the older brother:

Image

The tank is very well made, but it wouldn't be me if I wouldn't try to add some detailing...

Image

I decided to make rear fenders from metal and possibly front ones, too...

Image

Image

The tank has stovage boxes, that seems are taken from Heng Long tank, as they have not detailed handles:

Image

Image

And it must be corrected:

Image

Image

In the next week I hope to meet the postman, bringing me the T81 tracks...

Really looks great. But the hatch interiors should not be white.
