Evening all, more progress - I have been prep-ping the assemblies ready for priming, this involved making some paper masks and fixing in place with some Blue Tack, including a small piece of paper covering one of the sights, I also made the rear vents - these will be painted and fitted. OC.

Indeed Lou, bet it would be quite a thing to be close by, I saw a video where an M60 fired a round into the engine bay of a Land Rover car and it completley destroyed it - amazing power. OC.

Brother - going the "Extra Mile" in our pursuit of realism is what we all do here, and frankly I don't think you will be happy unless you gave the 3D printing a try, you know you have our attention for the duration - and for me personally the more involved the project is - the more interest it has - its good to push the envelope so to speak. OC. -
Thank you kindly Gary. OC.

Thank you so much - at the moment the engine has stalled - hence why there will be another of the crew looking into it - guess if they find chocolate bars they will be eaten very quickly lol. OC.

Thanks Alan, but pack it in you will start them lot off wanting some lol☺️ OC.

Evening all, I managed some more time on this today - firstly I added some more PE trunking, then I made the barrel up consisting of several sections, this was then glued in place and the PE guard was added. I have the barrel elevated and glued in that position. Photo/s also include driver Dave just placed there for now (he was feeling left out) OC.

Evening all, some more things added - the frame for the loaders co axial and some other details on the roof. Just noticed a need to make a joining cover for where the trunking meets the body of what ever device it is towards the back. OC.

Thats a great idea with that tinted foil - there should be loads of it around, love the idea for the wheel mask - so much easier than hand painting each one I will have to try and make something similar. OC.

Thank you kindly, Bob? OC.
