This build is really moving along. Great work, Adam.

Jake, I'm waiting for the T72 myself, and I'm thinking I'll wait for the Waltherson's edition. That's supposed to be out this year, and is supposed to have all new controls so we'll see how they stack up. I was also thinking about the Trumpeter T-72 kit to use the details on the Waltherson's tank, but that might get expensive.

Thanks guys!

Used Japanese navy green, quite a bright green but it'll tone down well with washes etc.

Managed to get the elmod working with help from Brel - thank you! Saved a frustrated tanker.

Upgrading the servo recoil tonight as quite frankly, it's appalling.

It's looking really great Adam. I did get myself a t-72, but it's in 1/72nd scale. Better than nothing, I guess.
