  10. Looking great Denis, and with your blog/story I and probably the rest of the guys will pull and extra cozy chair up - to hear it.......... "Who's got the popcorn..........."Mark" OC.
  11. Evening all, I managed a few more hours on this today - I decided it was time to offer the lower and upper hulls together and glue in place, there seems to be a slight moulding error as the lower is slightly thinner than the upper, so I worked from the front hull first getting glacier plate lined up and glued, then I worked my way towards the rear and the engine bay, again a few slight errors of lining up so it was trial and error till I reached a good half way stage. On the one side above were the skirts will be a top hatch side piece was showing a recess so this needed to be filled with putty and sanded. All in all not too bad - but the lining up miss match under neath is a surprise. OC.
  12. That is looking so nice Kevin, the wood detailing is really sharp - and the varnish makes it Pop. OC.
  13. I think its a stuck gear hence why the driver is hanging around his pit - keep trying the gears..... Could be that or just an excuse waiting for the Popcorn man to arrive......😁 OC.
  14. Thank you kindly Mark, yep she is going to be quite a used tank with something wrong with the engine - hence why the covers will be off it. OC.
  15. Evening all, more progress today - I painted some of the details in both the drivers compartment and also the engine bay, then I gave them a few dirty washes and highlighted the same as I did to the engine, then the engine was placed along with another vent hose. OC.
