Thanks Herr Proff, getting the "stuff" right is actually harder than I thought it might be. I used all my tools & relevant mechanic type hand tools on my KV2 build to fill a tool box. Now I have none left :/
As for show photos, I would say yes but as there will be limited time & opportunity to step out from the transmitter & snap such pics, all I can say is I will try ;)

Thanks mate, but if I managed to F-up a pallet, what hope is there for me eh ???!!!.....
Thanks the Gods I dont have half a Million strengthening ribs to place on an actual watertight hull to worry about...........I couldn't afford the Jack Daniels to cope with what you have going on.

Merci Monsieur Jofaur , your comments are very kind. and I appreciate you looking in on my projects as I do on yours.
While this one was begun as a simple-ish tidy & completion, its become something rather more.

A few minor touches to get this one as close to done as I can for the show on this weekend.
I used a tan filter to tone the new paint down rather than a wash, just an effort to try a different path & see how it went.
Did tone the new down a bit, so that is a tick, which means I might give it a run on something else.

We have section of space set aside for us to make noise and be Bogans................the noise really really upsets the train guys/crusty old fogeys & their long suffering blue-rinsed wives :/ :wtf: (we dont care ;) )

Its also the first time there without our guy that founded the club and led the charge on promoting 16th RC tanks to the wider public. (Recent Estate Sale)
Going to be a bit odd. but none the less enjoyable.

The show was great. Loads of interest, but in all honesty the star of the show was the Barbie Tank :wtf:
I had fun doing doughnuts, jumping the thing over the scenery, and assisting with kids taking pics of it with them !! :{
Was really a classic...............my mate calls out, never mind all the time & effort we put into our ones to be right, Barbie ??????

Turns out that I had the motor wires not right so left was right and vice-versa. Now corrected. Right :crazy: :crazy:

We need pictures..

Your work is sublime. This is looking amazing, and a credit to the memory of the former owner.
