I wish you had posted those a month ago. I searched all over the place trying to find pics of the barrel elevation, and which bits moved...in the end I took a guess, and now looking at those pics I would not have got it right no matter what I guessed at. Its not a problem though as I never use barrel elevation when running the tanks.

I have since clamped it in place to stop it moving, as there is nowhere to put a servo.

Only realised I'd got them when I was looking for the KV pics: SWMBO had hidden the book case.....

This is pretty much finished now, not quite up to Lego standards of course....

Mr Wibbly really well done.


I do like the markings on the Lego version also. You are a very talented builder and the scope of this piece is very impressive.
If you have a chance( when you have time) can you please get this piece outside just to see it in some natural light in an outdoor setting? Something about the outdoor shots make these tanks come alive and this one is a truly deserving example for sure.

I'll take some pics in the club hut on the 29th, more room and better lighting. Might take a short video to conclude the build. Then decide whether to keep or sell.
My concentration has been disrupted recently, two houses being built inches from my house wall, diggers starting at 7:15am, hammering, chiselling, delivery trucks, etc etc... aaargh!
