I'm speechless. I can't tell it from the real one. I had to look at the pics a couple of times to understand that those two white plastic tanks were not semitransparent, they were Painted to simulate it.

Each time I think you reached perfection, you improve.

Joe , good to hear from you . Thanks .

Lui , now I'm speechless !

Some pics of the berry patch .

And a stray pumpkin plant vine .


Big boysenberries

[imatanker]

O.K. I'm going to get it right out of the way. Oh Carl, your berries are so big. There' I've said it

[406 Silverado]

Man that engine does look sweet, thought it was real at first.

[406 Silverado]

Man those are big berries. I've eaten mine already..lol. Waiting on the grapes now.

[Deleted]

Jeffy , I dug up that plant last spring from under some fir trees . Looked like it was gonna die last yr. but this yr it's gone crazy growing .

Rob , maybe another week or so and I'm going to freeze these berries and have em in a pie this winter .......warm boysenberry pie A la mode ........gawrd , delicious !

Engine bay filled up .

[imatanker]

Sometimes all they need is a shake up. I've had that happen to some of the one's I've transplanted. That engine is a tight fit Bro, looks the biz though

[bullardino]

I was afraid that little of the engine would be seen from the access door... Russian tanks tend to have a tight fit design to keep their size small and low.

Mighty fine mate, I love it.

[wbill76]

Looks right at home there Carl, tight fit but everything where it's supposed to be.

[Deleted]

Jeffy , sounds like you done did some time with garden tools also .

Lui , must be a tight fit for the tankers in these is all can say .

Bill ,Meng did the fit real well . I didn't need any glue to hold the firewall in place due to the excellent fit .

[Leon]

Now that engine fit reminds me of todays autos .Looks good Carl.

[dupes]

Man...that is excellent! What'd you do, washes? Pigments? "Other"?

And a ferking bumpy rough ride, they say. In the older versions it wasn't uncommon to get hurt because you didn't grasp firmly enough during the run. Fast speed and little shock absorbers

[elco]

That looks awsome Carl, very nice work!

[Deleted]

Leon , I know what you mean , I cant even change the spark plugs on my car cause I cant get my hand out of the tight fit once I get it in there .....let alone get a wrench in there !

Dupes , all of them you mentioned . I did go with Tamiya paints this time so the oil wash would have no effect .

Lui , I've watched the video of the flying T-90 and the landing . Good looking recovery on the suspension but gawrd the crew must of been belted in tight !

Elco , thanks .

[deafpanzer]

WOW! Your garden looks lovely!!! Don't be alarmed if you find me knocking on your door soon...

[Deleted]

Engine bay completed .

[wbill76]

Power pack looks right at home Carl! I may have missed it earlier, but are you going to leave the panel removable to be able to show that off or will this all disappear?

[Deleted]

Hey Bill !Good question . The kit provides an option to make the engine deck door operational .

Here's some pics of it in the open position Bill .

[TRM]

That is fantastic Carl! The Lump looks excellent all in place!! Great option with the lid too!! Keep plugging away!!

[Deleted]

T , I'll do that !

Andy , stay out of my berry patch !

[wbill76]

Now you've got the perfect coffee-table display option Carl, you can just pop that open and show it off at any time.

Marcel.

[Tojo72]

Moving along real nice Carl

Sent from my SM-N900V using proboards

[deafpanzer]

It was nice that the wheel template comes with the kit... it should be that way for all kits!!! Fantastic CM work as usual! Red spots look pretty good... they remind me of your devilish eyes.

Good seeing you here buddy!

[wbill76]

Nice to see Meng providing some extra goodies like that wheel mask, bet that made your life easier. Got to love the look of those dazzlers, the turret's looking good too Carl, keep at it.
