Here is my latest very late update.... finally.
I don't remember what I'd posted before so here's the most recent work I did. I think I left off with this pic of the Patton where the main hull and turrets were built up: Next I added the fenders and the turret bustle rack: Next I built the TC's cupola shown here dry-fit to the turret: Finally, I added the mantlet cover and the main gun to this. The mantlet is made from the DS Styrene so it is flexible, allowing the gun to move: I'm calling this puppy ready for paint.

Thanks AG! I was a bit later than I wanted to be but Life got in the way. More to come soon in another week or two, I'm hoping to be slinging paint on it within the next few days.
Thanks JKB! I appreciate the compliments.

Thanks Marco. It's not quite as clean as I'd like, but hopefully the paint will refine it a bit more.
