(rofl)Luigi, Now i understand better all the male bonding. Andy, L'ets call it a passion Wink wink! BromanMace, thanksamucho bro! But one thing is sure: I aint out of tha woods yet! Got to get those 4bolts on the junction of the front glacis and lower hull...but the shrinkage of the resin also messed up the angle so I have to do some more plastic surgery on tiny spots... I shall use the force! Thanks again people. Phil, out.

So: I`ve epoxied the Mother ferker! comp01 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr comp02 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr Lets hope it works! I was spraying primer on the undercarriage, when poop happened ;-|This is where I am at. lowerprime02 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr lowerprime03 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr lowerprime01 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr I had just bought some nice shades of sand color to ravish you all with some paint Sorry gents...have to wait a least 48hrs for the epoxy to fully cure before trying my field repair! At least I got a two hours of bench Phil, over and out.

Fingers crossed that you've solved the compressor issue Phil! Nothing worse than getting a break-down right in the middle of a painting session.

Just how the ferk did I miss this? I'm not used to these "Backward Builds" where you do the ammo boxes first and then stick a Tank to 'em. Is this the norm in Canada? To do things backwards? Now that I've read the whole thread, and I'm all "Philed" in so to speak, I gotta say......... MOST EXCELLENT Brotha Phil. BOOKMARKED!

Dog, Thanks mate! Luigi, It is now ALIVE !!! epoxy seems to have pimped the hell outta my AB, looks like there was a leak for some time now hehe Bill, it was indeed frustrating, it broke in the morning just after I went to get some paint.... Now, Game`s on! Jeff, no sweat bro! So much awesome thread on MSC it is easy to miss some build! MEA CULPA, I`ve done it numerous time. Great to have you aboard!!!! It is no norm to backwardbuild up here, I was waitting for the kit to get here. So, I bent some PE and the ammo box was born! Thanks again you all This support was needed indeed! OK now, got to get spraying! Phil.

I got some color on the lower hull and running gear so I can glue the two half together. This way I can fix the 4 bolts attachement point wich are right on the malificient gap! I got gloss on, this mean I`ll be pin washing, spraying flatcoat, some filters annnnnd weathering the sides and running gears. Front and rear glacis will receive some love at the same time than the rest. I`ll be masking the tracks and lower hull side for the rest of the build, except for the final stage of weathering to blend it all together. primerlower01 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr primerlower02 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr primerlower04 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr primerlower05 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr tracks01 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr glosslower01 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr Preshade is more visible on this pic! glosslower02 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr glosslower03 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr That`s it for now...More as soon as I can!

Most excellent preshadification and shininess Phil. So I'm thinkin' the repair on the regulator was a success ?

Where I work, we have come to accept that the most illogical action to take will be management's decision.
We will behave, maybe...................

Nice progress, the clear cote darkened a lot the base color... It did a little but, if you are talking about the wheels it really the wash wish I will wipe. The color you see on the side of lower hull is pretty accurate with the real model. Thx bro!
