Fynsdad,
Your work looks better than a similar product from HL or Mato or Tamiya. You really know your stuff.

You are so lucky lister... Man If I were there.. I'd do a covert mission...and when fynsdad wasn't looking... swap that baby and leave a Walker there in hopes he wouldn't notice
She came out AWESOME!

You mean there's more to look forward too

...that's awesome fynsdad!

...If it were mine... I'd put some Saunders markings on her and go out and tear up some turf
Got a stupid question for ya though.. what kind of glue do you use to cap off your driver sprockets and idlers...I generally use super glue...but they still pop off
Thanks for sharing this beauty fynsdad

Boy that was fast

...thanks fysdad ... I had to google it... but now I can go look for that
