Ian, Pete, cheers muckers  . Okay then, I am now getting close to priming this beast  . The tool and spare track holders and side skirt mounts are on. Just the exhausts, running gear, and tools to sort out now    After looking at loads of online pictures of the pea dot camo and my own reference pics, I decided to get cracking on the figure too.

Very nice indeed Paul, the pea pattern isn't the easiest to paint but your figure is looking damn good!

Oh my, that camo is amazing. The Jagetty-Jagetty looks awesome too! Maybe I should try building with one arm.

Tommy, Pete, Joe, Wouts, Ian, cheers muchly muckers  . Well then, I obviously had one too many last night  . I got stuck in the instruction trap and forgot that I am building a December/January 44 vehicle  . The tool holders on the sides of the vehicle shouldn't be there  , so off they came today. After a good sanding to remove the glue marks (welds really as when I glue something it's there forever  ), I added some Mr Surfacer 500 to get the texture back up  . Today also covered the last of the welds around the front of the Kasematte.

Never drink and drive. Never drink and model, too. Surprised you have not learnt that lesson already

Excellent work Paul, I wouldn't know anything about the changes on the tank so I'm hoping you'll guide me when I start my 1\72 beast!? The camo on the figure is looking great too. AG, is that missing exhaust going to turn up in your display cabinet  ?
