She's finally done. I never thought I'd actually do a super Pershing but thanks to Frank Heritage for his awesome conversion work and Impact Upgrades for their t-81 tracks I've got one I'm proud of. I'll let the pictures and video do the talking.ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

really nice Super Pershing...It is one of my favorite tanks in WOT. That sucker is a money maker in the game.. I have a pershing, after seeing your build I am wanting to convert to the SP version!

How did you get it to spin that fast at minute 2:00 ? I can never get my Super Pershing to do that in WOT :haha: :haha:

Cheers!
It's the magic henglong superspin steroids I fed it!

Mechanically she's bone stock tamiya, however I've always thought the tamiya Pershing is one of the best runners off the shelf. Whilst I would never pay the $400 a new set of tamiya electrics costs now, I can appreciate they run incredibly well and in the case of the later models sound pretty good too.

Talk for themselves, Tom? They're positively chatty!. Pick your best pics for Jan's TOTM. :thumbup: That could be harder than it sounds,..... because the Tamy looks fantastic from every angle. :clap:
Congrats to Frankie as well, of course :wave:
