Hello Tony, I'm glad Andy (deafpanzer) got me started on this site. I'm seeing some folks builds that I used to see elsewhere. It's great to see your builds again. I've spent the last 40 minutes or so, getting caught up on this one. Once again I've been to the school of Tony Lee's practicality. Like the assembly of the wheels and bogies. Not to mention the red auto putty. I've seen that elsewhere and now I know what it is. I'm going to need to hit the auto store tomorrow. In terms of our memories/minds, my friends at work have used the analogy of the brain being like and ice floe with penguins. If you want to make room for new penguins at the front of the floe, then the penguins at the back end get shoved off. Watch out for the Orcas! An outstanding build good sir. Cheers Dave

Sorry to hear about the compressor! Love that store Harbor Freight... even their cheap airbrush was good enough to be a back up when my $200 AB broke down. Have fun shopping!
Looking real good with paint on!!!

Harbor Freight opened at 9am this morning. First thing I did was clean out the airbrush so she'll be ready to go again tomorrow. Cost about as much as a good kit,i've got too many anyway. Tony lee

Hey Tony, Sorry to hear about the compressor. Mine disappeared on one of the many relocations during my stint with the Army. I am looking for a new one. Good to know Harbor Freight carries them. I will stop by next time I am in town to check them out.
The Sexton is looking good too!
Mike

No tears over a cheap compressor going kaputt...they have planned obsolescence built into their sale price! Sounds like you're back on the road and looking forward to more Tony.

If I were younger I might go for a more reliable unit with a better name but as long as these serve my purpose they're good enough. Long Live El Cheapo Freight Thanks guys Tony lee

Glad to hear you have the ability for continuous compressed gas again....you can never have enough compressed gas at our age. Now that you have gas at pressure you can express yourself!
Rounds Complete!!

Hope you are kidding us? Great job painting on those details... now I have to ask you what are those silver canisters? I see three so far... I admit I know nothing about British armors except that they wore funny shorts and caps.

Thanks to one and all To tell the truth I had other plans for today but with the rain I turned to the details. Thing is my coffee mug had to be filled more than normal and that's a NO NO when you need a steady hand. I'll do the touch up first thing in the morning and go easy on the caffeine the rest of the day. Andy, yep those are FEs and made of brass, three in the fighting compartment and one on the rear. the two large red ones are plumbed to the engine compartment. Smokey the Bear enlisted in the Canadian army, I think this was his ride. This rain is suppose to turn to snow in the morning, praying for them to be wrong. 78 degrees yesterday 33 tomorrow. See Ya Then Tony lee
