Got a little bit more work done.

Nice work on the tracks Ian :thumb2:

Just finished piecing together a set of AFV club workable tracks myself an found them pretty decent. How was the assembly with that type?

Never a fan of doing tracks but these seem to have gone well for you.

It looks good with the green & black paint scheme Ian, you made a nice job of the paint. The tracks very neat, much better than the kit rubber band ones.:thumb2:

Apologies for being very behind on this one. I've got to say it'coming on rather nicely.

Well done!!!

Looking very nice mate. I spent 3 years working on these and the 30mm Rarden Cannon.

I spent a few years in them and the Scorpion Paul.

Nice work on the camo Ian. The memories must have come flooding back when building this one.

Yes I loved playing with them, I wouldn’t call it work enjoyed every minute.
