Hey John that came out great. Looks like you just have loads of fun with the AK trying out different things. I take it you stumped something?

Evening bud Well the tarps on but I'm not thrilled, still some weathering to do on them.

Are those the Fruimold [sic] tracks?

Hey Myke the tracks are Spade Ace (off eBay) I actually thought they went together better than fruilees less flash didn't need to drill one hole just stuck the sequen pins in and away I went
Ok so here's the pics of the tarps and some general shots:

Looking first rate. Are the tarps tissue and white glue?

Thanks mate, yup tissue and white glue. I might not go down that route next time though because it's a little hard to manipulate when dry.

just caught up since i last looked and the work is just stunning!

Cheers Andrei!

[JohnSimmons]

Thanks Mr T and geegad ;D
So she's finished! TBH I could go on and on but I'm itching to start another project (dont you just love the feeling of completing a kit and then looking over what to do next?), I've added a few bits and bobs, an extra wheel, armour farm box etc http://armorfarm.com/shop/german-supplies-wwii/ so here's the finished pics, hope you like em and again thanks to all that commented, this has been a special build for me for personal reasons and one I wont forget.

John, it turned out fantastic. I love the look of it. I will have to take your idea and add stuff to the hooks on the turret edge. Gives it some life. The miss matched turret is a great touch.

Very Cool John it Turned out Great
