Seems like a lot of work to invent a time machine, travel back to WW2, invent a shrinking machine, shrink some real Tiger tracks and bring them back to the future just for your model... Seriously though, those looks great. Wouldn't know they weren't real..if you hadn't told me

Leon, Deano - thanks alot you guys. Been battling pretty nasty case of arthritis in both hands...first time ever this bad. I did manage to finish pinwash and spray dullcote, but while it cures a few days, im taking a break!!! Thanks, Gary

Loving it... love it when dulllcote does the job perfectly!!! hang in there buddy... I have been struggling with pain in all joints for last 2-3 weeks and I never had that before. Tempted to move south to a warmer place now!

It's looking spectacular, Gary. I hope you find some relief from the arthritis soon enough. If you're anything like me the cold just makes it worse...and we seem to be in for some more cold stuff... I look forward to seeing some progress when you're feeling better! Tempted to move south to a warmer place now! Then you're just in pain and hot.... ....and when you get a day like today when there is 39 degree (so far) change in temp in the course of 12 hours....ugh...shoot me...

the very first thing I noticed was the four hoses that connect to the air cleaner. They just look real. The cables look nice. The whole tank just looks nice. gary

Hold on mate, we're all getting older and the age does bad tricks... Your job, tho, is like good wine, it doesn't get old, it gets better.

I think I've heard that once or twice Yup! I agree with that, if it's not one thing it's another. Take good care Gary. It might be too much remote control on the thumbs, maybe? Nice progress on the tankie, you sure make it look easy my friend.

WHOA! Fantastic weathering on the lower hull... DAMN!!!
For some reason I dig the "short" barrel version now...

Post by Leon on Mar 11, 2015 18:52:11 GMT -5
OK bro!! What's up with the barrel? We can't have a Tiger prowling around without it's gun can we .Looking really good. Glad to hear the fingers are working again.
