Dicky- If there's one thing I know it's "damage". Wbill - Look no further Bill, she's done. Tojo - I surprised myself with that for sure. Mac/Andy - Every now and then I look at the shelf and think to myself, "what could I have done better?" and "should I revisit this?" Well most I leave alone but this was only sitting a few months. It got the nod. Luigi - Thanks mate! Wouter - Thanks Wouts, there is one thing I know for sure living where I do and that's dust! Heico - Thank you sir! I'm watching your Merkava closely . rbaer - Thank you for the look see and comments. It means a lot. Leon - Seen a few rusty mufflers in your day eh? Thanks sir! Ok well we went hog frakkin wild with the pigments and here we are today. I'm calling this finished as I love the way it turned out. I used some Value Gear stowage and called it good. Next thing I want is to make detachable antennae. I store this in a a clear case but the lids too low for permanently mounted antenna. I think I will cut off those short pegs, drill holes in the mounts as they sit and use .015 music wire. Any thoughts/suggestions will be greatly appreciated. G

Makes me want to get my hands on a S'hot of my own! Thanks guys! Heico if you get a chance to build any one of these AFV Club Centurians, you won't be disappointed. Order the individual link track set as well. It's a joy to work with. G

Thanks Dicky. It took some soul searching, but I just sat down and did it. I felt that if I ferked it up, well it'd be a REAL dirty Whip. G

Thank you all! I felt she required a display worthy of the effort. A pine board, DAS modelling clay and a rock mold was all I needed. That and some good Mojave desert soil. G
