Hello to all,

the turret is in progress and (I hope) soon it will be finished.

In simultaneous working, I have prepared the loader figure already. It seems the small lady is too weak to be a loader; I can also define her as an instructor.

The figure is originally from SOL, not a Chinese copy

Have a nice weekend

Hello Gentlemen,

thanx for comments !

the crew will not be completely female. I will put a driver who is under the hatch so that he will not have problems withe the main gun. The commander is made out of a SOL "Golani Captian". And I define the female loader as an instructor.

The progress is going on and now there are only few (but difficult) parts to make. Reactive armor and cal .50 above the main gun and the two boxes to be the smoke grenade launchers. And finally the identification panels around the rear basket and some antennas and sensors on top of the roof. I hope to get some nice outdoor pictures next year when the M60 will roll over our battlefield.

Hi Karl,

You are doing some fantastic, patient, painstaking work with a loving hand on this M-60. But, your M-47 will always be my favorite of yours. It's just out of this world.

Beste,

Ralph
