I hope to get the tank outside tomorrow to get some photos in the yard as to give it a better look in a "real" setting. Decals are applied. Antenna and tools are mounted and painted.Image the tracks have not been painted and weathered yet as they are the plastic kit supplied tracks I modified for the build. I'm afraid that the paint and weathering might gum them up and affect thier performance adversely...

The radio rx and battery will be ordered Thursday and then it's testing timeImage

Thanks to everyone who has followed along with this build. It's been fun and could not have happened without the wonderful people of the forum who inspired me to push the envelopeImage ImageImageImageImageImageImage

Carl!
Outstanding, sir! ( a bit of color on those rear taillight and reflector lenses is all I could think to add ) The chipping and paint and details are perfect! I am really looking forward to seeing this run my Friend.
regards,
Painless

Yes I'm with you on that reccomendation Mr Painless! Once I have a minute I will get the lights and lenses up to par and I've a bit of dry pigments to rub on the tools and machine guns. Image Building this from a model kit was quite fun to be honest. Thanks my friend

An inspirational build. I have the kit and the rc conversion. I have been plucking up enough courage to start it, which has been severely dented by my experience with the Puma. With this thread to follow, I won't feel quite so alone and helpless.

What else would you need, except for the two kits and tools. Radio, what else?
