Actually I'm thinking back to original Russian spec! I'm probably not going overboard on the breakable detail like the tiger.

Sounds like a plan.... saw the Soviet Female tank crew... think she'll look great once all is said and done.. A non- Anime version of a GIRLS UND PANZER ...It'll be fun to
see her come to life :D

Tom,
How is this one coming along? I should have some photos of work I managed to get done this weekend to put up tonight on mine. Lets compare notes.

Hey painless, I've been a bit distracted getting this ready for initial tests on the water:

I still want to knock off the m51 as well but I think that will be running at the same time as the kv-1

Good Morning, Tom,
Very sharp looking craft! I look in on your boat rebuild threads as well since I enjoy seeing something broken or ill made being fixed up and brought to it's full potential.
regards,
Painless

Cheers painless! Seems to be my stock in trade, I swear it takes way way longer to do a restoration than a new build. This time I shelled out a bit more to get something mostly unbuilt. Now I only have to cope my own mistakes ;)
