Re: GDay from OZ
Hi Greengiant,
yes the base is a metal upgraded Heng Long. The suspension arms are lowerd 3mm and the springs are altered. Early version Trumpeter wheels( rubber tyres). Early T-34 fuel boxes on the back instead of the round drums. Also removed the shot splash protectors from the upper hull near the turret. I used a Trumpeter static model for the movable mg( servo controlled) and for the detailed drivers hatch, also servo controlled.
Finally, the turret is from the same kit. Heng long rotation but servo elevation and recoil.
Any questions, glad to help.
Cheers

Re: GDay from OZ
It looks real nice. In the future please post pictures from different angles so we can better see the whole model as completed.
