Hi all
6th Sept update
Slowly slowly it's coming together ..the turret armour is a sod ... so many complex angles ..typical German over engineering and it would see that no to models of leopard have the same armour package .. it's different for a Leo 2 ..or a Leo 2a5 or a 2a6 ..and even the 2a7 is different again..
But after many hours of messing about ..checking ...cutting binning scrap attempts ..
got there .. we, some where very close ...
Next time I will just build something simple and paint it and try to enjoy the build ?
Pics ..enjoy ?

Gone from headache to nose bleed !!
If the Germans "over-engineered" it, you have equaled that and miniaturised it
Huge effort, give that man a drink

I think the main reason for the lack of comments is that people are just lost for words. I Know I am.

[quote="mcevoyi"]Hi all
10th Sept update
Its quite interesting I have so many peopel look at the build and not a lot of comments I guess that down to the things I build being different and unique and ins some ways not relevant to 99% od the armour in here ... perhaps some of the Wat I create the parts may be of interstate to some ?
Which knows ?
I often think the same?
Your skills are amazing resulting in awesome work!!

I look in quite often, sometimes I am not even logged in. It's an amazing build, I just watch in awe, your ability to cut styrene never ever ceases to amaze me.

Some amazing work Iain! I didn't realise it was so different to the normal Leo.
