It's a T26...what did I win? :D I was just working on mine last night. It moved under it's own power for the first time.

It is a t26. Mine moves but the fdm printer it’s previous owner printed it on left gaps in the leaf springs (not his fault just to fine a detail) so all it took was a little knock from a parcel company or more accurately not handled with care as the tape and labels suggested and broke 2 of the 4 leaf sprung bogies so I decided to get the files and print them in abs like resin and they seem much stronger so far

To be honest mr gunner it’s coming together quite well, the are some bits that would have been easier fitted before building the hull but credit to inkor. It’s a good design. Can be build using glue or screwed together or both and though designed for fdm its printing very well in abs like resin

Now im at this stage and you saw the test one printed and being built, wrongly I might add, this is where I am now with its final version, the turret is still the original test one but the rest is a new reprint in abs pro 2

Very nice. I wonder how much better it is than the regular ABS-Like.

Well, I haven’t broke anything putting it together yet unlike the last one and it seems to maintain some of its flex rather than going brittle. So quite a lot better
