Hi thanks to all who looked in and left comments much appreciated. Done bit more on this.done more painting, the barrel and one gun support girder done. Had bit of fit issue with lifts at back they sat to high.so I removed the first 2 fillets, this made it sit better but low.so added plasticard to bring it to right level. The pic was taken before I sanded them in properly. The rest the loading platform built up.the 8 ton halftrack there for scale. Also made up the control cabin which fits to underside of loading platform. Cheers mick. mogwai attached the following image(s): Builds hms victory, suzuki gsx 1300 R hayabusa, honda C B 750, lamborghini countach L P 500 S, tamiya 1/16 rc full option tiger 1 tank,

Looking really good, loving the paintwork. Hard to believe something this size actually existed. Man he took his time in the sun Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand He gave birth to poetry But one day will cease to be Greet the last light of the library...We were here!
