Got out the first piece of armored fighting vehicle for the Expeditionary force. Started with a Bulldozer and did the turn it around for a new front. An old Grant Tank, 1/48th scale provided bits and pieces, especially the armored vision ports.
Gun turret added. Proved to difficult to cut into the upper chassis after I shortened the overall height of the tank by cutting away some of the under carriage. Next was cut and thin the gun port covers from the Grant tank.
Spare bogies put on the outboard back side. Primed and drying for color coat next.
Looking good, what about some appliqué armour plates or track guards, some Russian tanks had their fuel cells mounted on to the track guards!
