Carl! I really like where you went with this one. Is this going to be a stand alone?

carl i can understand the order for tools deal. finally did that myself. i also just got a smaller pe tool. i dont do alot of pe but it should help. although no pictures i have had two optivisors for a while. really a great investment for me.
the build looks fantastic. the overall looks natural to me. not too much. the weathering you have done gives the paint more of a 3d type of look. not the best way to say it but it sure gives it a fantastic look.

First off thanks Phil and Joe !
Phil , I haven't decided what I'll do with this one when its done. Still got the 20mm to build and I haven't started on it yet . I'm a slow builder , especially this time of year when there are things to do in the outside world .
Joe , I haven't done that much pe either but I did invest in a number of pe sets . I've ruined and lost a few parts trying to bend pe with a pair of tweezers and pliers . I had enough of that . I get what your saying about the 3D effect . I did the shading to try and get that effect . Gounds it worked then . Glad you noticed .

I took this picture last night and got it uploaded today . It wasn't difficult to get the tracks on . This kit has a track tension adjustment . Now I'm weathering the running gear .

I'm going to break out the movie again and watch it . I had forgotten about it till you said the "soggy bottom boys " . That guy Everett I mentioned was a shipmate of mine . Good memories Tony .
