I swear your commander looks like a young John Wayne, glad to see him back in service.

Alpha,
The canvas bucket didn't get pulled off of the tank. It is still mounted in the rack on the turret. *chuckles*

Jtracks,
Thank you. I'm glad he came back together solidly. He's original to the Pershing and any other figure wouldn't be the same.

I'd like to ask a question painless, where did you find your siren. Mine looks ridiculous with the guard in place not guarding anything. Thank you.

JTracks,
I got the siren for the Pershing along with a ton of other details from purchasing Tamiya sprues and bags for their version of the tank. The siren is on the 'G' sprue I believe.

The replacement Smoker came in today. I'm encouraged. Just waiting for the turret and replacement periscopes now. It may still be the first of the new year before this repair is complete.

At least it is repairable painless, at least you were extremely lucky in that regard.

Look forward to seeing the repaired version, is it going to be a carbon copy or will you be making changes?

Merlin,
I'm switching out the Mato periscope covers on the front hatches for the Schumo version. I will add a little rope to the storage but otherwise, still B-12. It turned out very well initially so I want to keep it like that. You are right, I was lucky in that respect. Too much broken and it would have been simpler and cheaper to add the salvaged parts onto another Pershing. Probably a Taigen version so as to avoid another repaint.
regards,
Painless
