        Steve, she's looking good! Too bad about the missing pieces, you always find them after the need for them passes.
        Standing by for the next installment. Cheers Rick H.

          Looking very nice indeed Steve.
          Yes I’ve just put the first coat of paint on mine.

            Coming together nicely. Where was your bench apron? Smoke dischargers definitely at wrong angle. Refer to Abrams' photos. Coolers I've seen in photos are red or royal blue with white lids always. PaulE

              Hi Steve, great build:thumb2: and shaping up very nicely. These modern 1/72 scale tanks are more detailed than the 70's/80's 1/35 scale models of the days. Hopefully the new tracks will be all ok and would be great to see this one finished.

                    Hi Everyone

                    Cheers Colin:thumb2:
                    You are not wrong there Rick:smiling2:
                    Had a look at your paintwork Ian and it looks really good. A nice base coat to work from:thumb2:
                    Thanks again for your help Paul. Smoke grenades have now been moved
                    The most detailed 1 72 kit I have ever done Dirk. However I have only done four so not much experience:smiling5::smiling3:
                    Thanks Scottie. Glad you like it mate
                    Thanks Lee:thumb2:

                      Think I’ll have to add one of these to the stash....looks so nicely detailed.
                      More detailing you say! There was me thinking you must be getting close to finish:surprised:

                        Looks great Steve, nice work adding the stowage looks suitably busy at the rear.:smiling4:

                        Good luck with the extra detailing and the periscopes turned out very nice.:thumb2::thumb2:

                              Hi Steve
                              You know those Russian dolls where they all nest inside one another getting smaller and smaller - your modelling reminds me of them. You add details to details which get progressively more miniscule, like the dolls :tongue-out3: Numbers on a 1/72 scale turret - truly incredible mogglin. Inspiring stuff.
