Got going on this one today after finally sourcing a set of 1/48 fruil tracks in Canada..

So after a lot of sticky fingers and redoing bits this is where its at, there rear is like a glue bomb but luckily that will be covered in mud where it counts

Fenders were fiddly gits



the exhaust guards were a right pain to bend to shape and there not perfect




Next up to tool clamps only 7 to mess up tough

 

[Big-John]

Bring it on Spud...bring it on!

 

[spud]

Thanks John,

Clamps are done, they were only one part of the clamp so they were easy enough, also were some braces on the air filter hoses, So now the lower hull is complete its onto the turret

Looks 1/35 Spud. Where do you get your 1/48 tracks?

 

[spud]

Thanks John, I got them from Track48

 

[spud]

Turret is done, next is the wheels






I changed the handles as they were just lumps of plastic and looked crap, also added the Rb Barrel, The tracks should be here this week so i can get them made up. then its on to the base or Paint

Sweet potatoes dude. Hows the PE @ 1/48th scale. God knows
its a handful @ 1/35th ;D

Looking great!
I love the detailing.
So did you find a solution for the burnt wheels yet?
Cheers
Klaus

Lovely work there Spudiccus!! Almost a shame to paint this when you are done!!....I did say "almost"!!

 

[Leighbo]

Just catching up on this one spud. The level of detail would be impressive in 1/35 but the fact that it is 1/48 is amazing.

 

[JohnSimmons]

Yeah, can't wait to see it go in the spud paint factory.
