If these are the "before" photos, I am excited to see the "after" (i.e. final or semi-final) photos. Egad this has been an impressive build every step of the way with action so "neaty-cool" (that's my inner-child's term).
Before as in before I post the other pictures. I didn't think the build part of these pictures belonged in the final photo thread... Thank you for all your comments and so far this has been my favorite build. I liked many of the others but most had their struggles, this one was fun from start to finish!

Dang! Stuff goin' on everywhere on that tank!
Still can't get over all of the functioning gizmos on it. So we'll done!

Thanks Mike, I have enjoyed your comments and encouragement along the way!

Holy-F'n- Mr Ecam, that right there is extraordinary and I stand & applaud you for it Sir.
You have it seems thought of everything.
What a magnificent demonstration of inventiveness, detail, and technical skills.
Was thinking of some tents too, but my sewing machine is still in Colorado. Yes I have an old Singer "Dress Maker" sewing machine. You would have had a great laugh if you were with me at the sewing shop to ask how to thread the machine. As a dad, I made a few costumes for the kids for school and church plays. Made a terrific "Columbus" costume twice for me. The first time it was cobbled together with hot glue. The next year I was asked to repeat the performance at a different church and learned to sew. Wore a wig and worked on an Italian accent...
Asking help for leggings (tights) in my size was kind of humbling too...
No pictures exist (as far as I know). Let the comments and speculation begin!

Oh, how I wish there were a family scrapbook that held that picture of you! I guarantee that if I could have gotten ahold of that, it would have garnered several million views by now!!

I HAVE the family picture scrapbooks. Keep it up and some of your early pictures in your cowboy outfit just might turn up.

Here is a sample of what I have on you. The cute six month old is me. The older one and "his" sister (the one on the right - none of us claim her) is Sassgrunt.
Bring it dear brother... You will be toast!
