Just added the side skirts and the rest of the parts to finish the hull. I will add the stowage and jerrycans soon. Still not sure if I should add them now and paint everything later. or paint the jerrycans & stowage and add them after paint & camo.
More tomorrow fellas !!!

Adding stowage before or after. Now that IS the $64,000 question!

I'm going for after Tommy !
Thanks Paul ! It will take me awhile to get it done, but there are some PE parts so damn small... I hope I won't lose them.
Anyway,
T-44 Update, some more engine parts glued, I'm almost there with the engine, then some touch up with paint and some weathering will be needed too. Scratched the A1 part for the M51 and masked the Bradley and let the NATO Green take control of the situation

M-51 looks like it fell together. Great job on the power plant and the Bradley looks sharp, too.

Looking like some nice progress on them all. Thanks !! Some take a little more time, but so far so good. Even the one I was a bit worried ( A-model & Miniart ) are coming along ok. I know the Yak will have some issued with the gear and engines, I'm not expecting a smooth build.

Boots & Marco, I will start painting the stowage soon, so far I did the smoke grenade launchers, and started painting the spare wheels.
I'm going to enjoy a sunny afternoon now... Plastic & Glue maybe tomorrow after the F1 Race.

Thanks Fellas !!!
Some more work,
T-44 insides, panels, equipment, will start the PE parts soon. I'm guessing that from now on it will be slower for the T-44, building an interior side, primer on, paint and weathering and then moving to another side, but I'm liking it !
Also worked on the Bradley, painted the rear unit number panel and the main gun and MG ( gun metal was a little to shiny.. will figure something later.), also forgot to add 2 side panels and started painting the stowage.
Camo and equipment painting will be next and finishing the stowage painting & weathering.
