Good news.... no more pictures lol............. for some reason Photobucket is problematic... so no more photos
just descriptions of the progress

After refitting a new maintenance hatch... secured my gun mount... and progressed to making a gun support... it's all metal...aside from the magnetic bumpers which were made out of sprue works great...
This was after two days of studying diagrams...3hours into a plastic prototype that failed....a day of searching for an alternate material ...which thanks to the suggestion from Green Giant...turned out to be the steel bottom from a tin can....after ten hours of work ...it turned out excellent... being I don't have photos ...you all will have to take my word for it :haha:

I will also have to thank Sassgrunt for lending me all the research material :D

Now the front is complete...on to the tail end then the middle :D

I don't know about those people who run photobucket.... they have like three video commercials with sound ...running all at once...and now they have a promo which pops up when you sign in.... don't think any comp set up can handle that much media at once... it's just stupid :thumbdown:

imgur.com is by far the best photo hosting site imo. That's what I use. No photos have ever disappeared and they are super fast with 99% uptime.
