Another tank Bob, when will you move over to ships or zombies -- hohoho -- I look at it "if it makes you happy" then its the best thing to do.
Looking good at the moment, what extras will you put on it ????

Don’t know yet lacking in enthusiasm at the moment, this one has been a bit of a struggle, I think I would have put it back in the box if it hadn’t been a gift.

Agree wholeheartedly with Kiwichappers, and all the others, another lovely job Bob.
I bet you're glad you persevered with it!
The shot against the backdrop is really effective and again brings the model to life.

I had a fight with even trying to take the pictures, kept breaking bits off.

A really excellent model Bob. I agree with the others with respect to the photo with the background. You've raised the bar for the club again.
