Tasca M4A3E2 Jumbo Cobra King build

[Big-John]

Now I really feel your pain Ken. MK tracks look brutal compared to Panda tracks.

But you can do it, I’m here for moral support if you need it. ;D ;D ;D

I literally had to force myself to stay focused on the tracks. It helps to try and do a little each night. Even if its just a few pieces.

The Tank looks awesome!!! I feel your pain on the tracks though, last weekend I finished the tracks for my M1A2. They were 6 pieces per link, 76 links per side for a total of 912 individual pieces!!! Well worth it though, your tracks look great.

Hey Big-John

The Jumbo is looking Awesomness!!! there.
Yeah tracks can be a huge pain, but I think the results of using them is worth the effort in the end. Looking forward to see this baby crossing the finishing line!!
