A few more parts added.

Ignore the overly long bolts. :/

Image

Barrel looks a bit long but it is to scale , maybe look better when i get the armour added.

Its all about the details.
Made the tow hitch out of a 2mm bit of piano wire and a spring from a pen.

Image

Image

The optic at 1/16 scale is not very big at all !

Image

The two vertical "shocks" are functional and help to support the barrel. Pen springs helping out again.

Image

Cleaning rods were a challenge to print, had to make in two parts and glue together.

Image

Breach handle.

Image

Front armour plate with ammo box's ?

Image

Shocks, tow hooks, suspension limiter and belly pan.

Image

Only a couple of small parts left and it will be complete, then my favorite part, paint. :/
