A lot of the Weld seam's need to be redone............I'm using plastic strip, melted with TESTORS Glue and a new #11 blade for this. The bottom of the noise was redone too. I'm also going to use a little bit of plastic to raise the hull/chasis a bit. This is looking very intimidating.

Jack,

If you are using Dragons kit as your base, they say you almost have to raise the upper hull 1.8mm to make it look accurate.

Yup.......that's what I'm doing as I type :) It's coming out better than I thought. Dunno if it will be done for K-Zoo...........but maybe Cincy............or O'Hare.............or Indy..........who knows. :)

Yes.............I like the one pic with the number on the bow. It will be NASTY looking :)

I like the white stripes around the turret. Looked real neat on the T-34/85 Bedspring from Dragon.

I actually had time to finish both track runs. It might make it's debut in Warner Robins next week!!! But the Fuel cells need work..............break out the foil and sprue. That IDF F-4E keeps staring at me........calling my name............Time to break out the turn table and the HORSELIPS Album :)

When we gonna see???.....inquiring minds want to know.

I'll have done for Cincy in a few weeks.......just Flat Blacked it this afternoon........Fuel Cell came out good. I'm adding some scratch rear side fenders............all while starting a Jagdpanzer ZW.

Well...............didn't have the time to get everything done that I wanted to it, but finished it in time for the Cincy Show and it took a First in a 123 Event. Mr. Knights tooks a couple of pics and if he would be so kind to post one, that would be cool. I also picked up the TRUMPETER T-62 too.........already started it :)
