Thanks fellas for the kind words. Tracks have been mounted and will soon be secured to the base. Hoping to wrap this project up this week. Then I need to get two others done this month and off the bench. Can't wait to start the RMF M1A2.

Oh my, Rob, this is looking great bud! How did you achieve that look on the asphalt road?
Cheers

Looking real good Rob. Can't wait to see it finished, is the tank nickname a decal or rub on letters?

Wouter, the road was done using Vallejo Black Lava texture applied in two thin coats.

Joel, all unit markings and tank name are all self made printed on blank decal sheet.

Rob, anything worth signing your name to takes time. There is good work, there is fast work, there is no good fast work.

Antennas were well worth the time Rob! What did you use for the tie down clip?

Very nice! The only thing I might change, if your customer likes it, is to have the TC waving to the girl on the roadside.

Thanks fellas, glad to have this one behind me now.
As for changing the TC, to waving, too late. The dio has been packed and shipped.
