Does Giselle come with the tank? Do I need more proofs of purchase?

Looking fantastic, mate. I don’t think anyone’s put this much effort into something for me… ever. It will be well treasured. Why is it that the bad guys get all the cool looking kit?

Multi-color fuel barrels seem to be a thing with Iraqi tanks. I’ve got references to Saladin Division vehicles with a wide mix of colors. Know a fella with an Iraqi army - or ratter, know him as an acquaintance - who doesn’t have a single tank in the force with matching fuel tanks.

This is just… lovely. I hope that I can, somehow, I’ve day return the favor.

Just saying, no room on the back of that for an unditching beam !!

Sweet as Mr Mithras, Im having fun doing it, and learning stuff along the way too.
Until its done, it aint done, so the mission continues.

A wee bit more done, this time on the front.
The tow cable has a spot that it’s secured to in a coil so I got that done using brass .
The upper holder was drilled 0.5mm and will have a pin thru the holes .
Just need to shorten the cable a bit more to fit right.
Next is the complete the rear , fit the spall bars & it’s heading for paint.

Absolutely Mr. Bix! This is the addiction that has taken hold of me as well.

I can't believe this image of my wife is still floating around the internet...

The polyandry hussy. She told me we’re married.

The rubber skirts--on the tank--look great, Bix. Just a bit of wobble in them just like the real thing. Yet another T72 thing to do!
Mike.

Tow cable -tick

Nice curves, Bix, but not even close.

Those curves Sir are impossible to replicate !

Welds here & there next.
