Re: Super Pershing
Im Back on this build! 
The beasty

turret (basically done)

front (needs the second hook glued back on and storage stuff put in the rack (must find it
) )

hydrolic rams in place

buttons'
i still need to hinge on the doors

filled in the holes with GS ( green stuff - its games workshop's modeling putty MUCH better that milliput. but as better things are, its twice the price for a fraction of the amount.)


The turret counterweight

CSI mounting in cupola

the pershing has been treated with a Tamiya 50 cal!

my staple handles

the frontal armour just like the real thing (pain to do though!)

cheers,
Matt
