At our most recent club meeting I came into possession of a partially completed Leopard 2 (A3-according to the instructions but A1 according to the decal sheet...) along with a couple of of RealModel engines. After pondering on what to do I've decided on something like this;  A little bit of time tonight has got me to here;  The turret was already made so getting the necessary gubbins into place will take a bit of fenageling

I like a bit of fenagling so I'll watch a fenagler  Bill

The engine is just tacked in currently to get a feel for things. Given its age it isn't too bad at all,dome areas will need some additional help e.g.the molded-on toots etc, but given the plan their absence shouldn't be a problem

hi Robbo. well I've tried tonight to box in the ammo stowage area. Not too difficult though I did end up with some gaps.Not going to worry to much about then as I should be able to fill those gaps with some gloop and aditional crud one the gubbins start to go in.

Welcome boys. I've been thinking....  ... about converting this to a PA style build. Thoughts graciously welcomed: Turkish or PA ?

Suffering aserious bump in mojo lately, but did manage a bit last night. Less about accuracy and more about gizmology...  More gizmology later...
