Thanks Septon, got the idea for the scopes on missing-lynx. The detail those lads cram into a 1/35 tank is amazing!
I'm even starting to like working with brass. Might even copy Rob and replace all the grab & lifting handles on this one  ;) ;D ;D

Cheers

Nice detail work.
Are you going to upgrade the running gear like your Leo?

Hi Wight,

Thanks for the compliments on my Leo & Abrams.
Yes, I'm going to uprade the running gear on the Abrams but I want to finish the detailing first.
If it turns out half as good as your Sherman I'll be very happy.

Cheers

Thanks Gary,

Going through a bit of a lull at the moment. Now that the leo's done I've only got the abrams to work on.
Strange thing that, I always seem more motivated with a couple of projects on the go.
Might have to invest in another tank, HL PzIV looks good.  ;) ;) ;D ;D

Cheers

What do you reckon to the HL PzIV?
It's the scope for conversions that interests me.
