German proverb: standing still is going backwards! Sagt man: Stillstand ist Rückschritt?
"The conqueror now looks a little friendlier with his big eyes - but he can't wink." If anyone could change the electronics to control one headlight at a time, you can. :P

The Conqueror is almost finished.
The Browning .30 from the Commandant is missing - has been ordered, but has delivery time.
Here are some pictures of the current status:

Tiger6 and jhamm: I am impressed by what both of you are accomplishing. It would be fun to see both of your Conquerors in photos in this thread.
If anyone is interested, here is a Wikipedia primer on the Conqueror: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conqueror_(tank)

Yesterday we had a meeting at Harzgerode.
The Conqueror had its first big ride there.
It did get a few small stones in the tracks and survived without any damage:

Sorry to detract from the sensational conqueror, but the gathering of the FW190, ME 109's and StuKa's is amazing.
Superb model Mr Hamm and equally good setting by the looks .
