Hi Alwyn still need to get it finished a couple of teething problems ,need to detail the tank cupola's to fit and covers for rams ect ,the bridge is finished just need to cover the gears on it ,needed to get the all up weight of bridge finished so could balance the tank needed to add quite a bit of weight to rear of tank to stop it tipping.

What an amazing piece of engineering and craftsmanship. That has to be the coolest thing I have seen in this hobby in a very long time. Wow.
