That is four 1\35 scale models worth of paint and detail time sitting right there.

You're doing a great job on this Painless. So good that when it's done I just might have to bring the Hetzer out there and turn it blue with paintballs. @) @) @)

Good morning,
You'll have to pardon me. The spousal unit has been saying it that way to me for so long that it has become canon around these parts. Hee! ( The looked for response is "I'm fat!???" ) Well, anyway, now begins the work on the lower. Lots of usable detailing to do there as well as figure out where I want the new electronics to go, bracing and a new way to attach the upper to the lower.
regards,
Painless

Good afternoon,
That is a good looking tank! It will make a great base for an upgrade Build. I see you are already working on it with the turret loose on the ring. Start a thread so we can all follow along.

Painless
