Looks like going to be a great build.
So who makes the PE Numbers?
Thanks

I finished the M88 from AFV a few months ago, i did a German version.
i had 2 small problems, the tracks weren't a very easy fit.
And be real careful when assembling the cables.
Nice build so far, i like the P/E numbers, nice touch

Thanks Yuan on the Loin Roar.
Great company BTW.
And you have more patience then me.
I have used Slaters Numbers which are plastic and come from England.
Never have tried PE for them as to cutting and where did it go scenario.

Still looking good Yuan.
Jeff:
Lay the fret on a piece of hundred mile an hour tape . Not only does the number not fly away, but there's also enough residual stickiness to hold the number in pace on the model. Then just hit it with a dab of paint or clear. It's an alternate method I use sometimes for the really small numbers and works quite well.

Wow! That's some amazing work! It reminds me of my days in the motor pool in Germany, and a time or two out in the field getting my Bradley unstuck.

Very nice build! What did you use for the antennas? How did you shape the ball on the end of them? Those are among the best antennas I've seen!
