hi all

pics say it all .. been away with work for what seems to be for ever .... had a bit of time to play with plastic
but ont a lot of time ... but its amazing what you can do in a hotel room... felt sorry for the cleaners ...as there was usualy a small pile of plastic dust on the floor ... .. i have woundered if thay thought it was someting ..a bit stronger than dust ?

i hope ti have a good crack at this tomorow ... as i have two day off and back on the job thursday ....
you know i have so many projects on the go ..i now feel the need to sit down and revisit unfinished tanks .. and get on with them ....

any way ... as usual stuff to do ..... like the turret counter ballance ..... but i know you will all get the idea
and there so much detail that needs adding .... i mean lotts of it .....

They didn't do so well in the first gulf war. We got a catastrophic kill of one with a 40mm grenade launcher. I'm pretty sure we dropped one down an open hatch when we did.
