Surgical precision blimp, I'm a huge fan of it. It's great seeing all the unique details on the early model coming to life!

It is surprising how much the early models changed.

Sorry folks , I've been a bit slow lately 
- Been sorting the IBU2 , servos and other wiring stuff .
- However here's some bits . . . .
. . . Some beads , various sizes , from a charity shop make excellent masters for ...
- Head light bowls etc. the threads are wires for the Micro SMD bulbs - Pin for reference ! 
And a couple of shovels to round things off .

Hello,
I like to look at this report,unfortunately the early T34 is not often built.Not to mention build reports.
You build many parts yourself,it is a pleasure to watch you.
I can understand everything very well,but I wonder how you put these wheels from Trumpeter on the HL hull,can you please show us.
with kind regards,Guido

Hello Guido 
- Not HL Guido , the hull is Taigen , with steel gears . . .
2x 9x3x3mm Bearings , a washer , axle (from my spares box) wrapped with a paper strip - this takes out the slack around the bearings .
- a tube spacer is also needed to align the wheels and stop them rubbing against the swingarms. ( Not shown)
* If 7x3x3 Bearings are used , the outer packing can be 1mm thick plasticard.
All the best . B.

Looks to be a very similar method to how I adapted the Trumpeter wheels to my builds.

At last , The weather has improved so I can get a base colour on -
(The headlights are going to be left black , as they appear to have been simply taken from existing motor pool stock.)
- Yay , progress !
