Herman,
That's the good stuff! Looks like a page out of the History of Armor books. Congrats! on an excellent Conversion Build.

Thanks Mr Wolf, it's been a long build one I am now proud of & happy with.
Bucket, helmets, and minor other bits & I will call it done.
Really liking the black & white option on this phone camera!!

:thumbup: Very nice B&W pictures. The stone might have thrown your tracks in real life. Well and in scale models as well when in the right spot.

Excellent job Herman looks the part and is very durable too lol. Very happy to see it finished and running about. What speaker are you running? Maybe as simple as an upgraded speaker and enclosure. Like the ones Maxmekker sells they have a great combination of volume and bass. Fantastic build
Tanks alot.... :wave:

Thanks mate, it photographed better in the black & white than normal colour !!
I will complete the little extras and do a show off thread at some stage.

I have a couple of crew figures simmering away as well so hopefully it will get a bit better.
Just by my simple pictures alone it's plausible to say that actual period pics of some JT machines could have had exposed patches of primer added to dust & mud to look almost indistinguishable from more traditional base coats with top colours.
We shall never really know.
