I actually build really fast...to a point. Then the next shiny new toy gets some attention...and the next, and the next. Soon it's been 6 months since I touched the first one... :haha:

Not much progress but the tank got Torro commander (which looks exactly like Russian politician Sergey Lavrov) and the dog ;)

Inside of split hatch cupola will be scratch builded as Mato don't have any details there.

The puppy looks quite cheerful. The Commander rather less so! Love it! :D

I don't like decals so i designed in Corel and ordred in local company stencils for Lend-Lease markings. It took several months because the company fulfills the order only after it fills the entire plate with customer designs. Stencils turned out pretty good. We'll see how the painting goes.
