Well she's almost there... finished the last bit of soldering ...copied a schumo periscope guard... and put a coat of color/ texture on the Hull ... also sorted the problems with the turret...I have to say.. I'm really liking her a lot :D

Good Evening,
Alpha, looking sweet especially the faux-Schumo periscope guard. ;o) Rainy here today as well so no primering or painting, just electronics nonsense.
regards,
Painless
