Yea jackalope I know everything has been moved out of the Proving ground site. Was there a reason for this being done? As I understand it many of the pieces have been sent to varying locations. Used to be nice to see it all in one place.

Hi all
Well it's coming together ..slow going as I hoped to be much further along with the build
Always looks a mess as you make a part and fit ...but I think you all get the idea
I been experimenting with texture ..that way you can see a thin layer of green stuff filler dabbed on parts that are case on the hull ..i am fairly happy with the loop so far
More or lees done the back end ...There is a trade off in that it's not quite the right shape
The gearboxes meant that the split in the rear back plate is a bit Lower than the real tank it's 6 mm
But with a bit of cheaky detailing it will not notice ,,,
up wards and on wards ...will start the turret today ..eek ! ....
Ant enough yap ..pics me thinks
