The Final Nightmare - FrankenIVBY
Posted: Sun Sep 25, 2011 5:49 am
Here's Yuka's second attempt - with thanks to those folks who have offered piccies, provided correct decals and generally supported the wee lassy. It is not 100% finished, as I promised her that I would do some detailing work here and there, but I'm popping this here now as this is her work as it stands.
As those of you who have been looking at the build thread will know, this is another one of those 'must be stock' things, as it came through a club deal with Tamiya. So, as Yuka was insistent on a British scheme, I add the caveat that IVBYs like this - especially armed with the 105H - probably never saw any real war service. Let the rivet-counters be aware of the unusual constraints set on this build, and be gentle.
That being said, I'm proud of her. Very proud indeed.
I just hope she does not take a fancy to one of the 1/6 gas powered Shermies.....
Forgive the temporary stowage. I have been roped into doing the real stuff for it, as time allows.
