Hi guys...this is my latest ISII....used the Jag interior...and some scratch building on the insides...CAST-a-Coat on the turret (I would !)...I correted the turret shape (is it a copy ??) on the side walls with a thick sully of the same stuff...its very easy to 'rebuild' with cast turrets this way...made attempts at the 'Lee Lloyd' method on the welds and added a fair ammount of etch...nd another Lee trick...a full set of new bolds on the rear...



see them all here at larger sizes

Hope you like and as always a corretion or two if you see them...it always helps

Hi Twig...thanks for the comments...re the base...pushing over a tree I think...but as normal for me it will be a 'lot on a little'...I will be using some NEW dio products (launch at Telford, I always have somthing new for the big shows), you will have to wait on these till time draws closer...

On the workshop floor at present is a T-44...an IS1, an IS1-85, a Pz4 Ausf G with the TMD backdate kit and FORGIVE ME LORD an brass railway engine in OO scale !!..I know...but the 8 inch H&F is going so well with the train guys...need somthing to show !!...at Telford I will be collecting for a Churchill...an early one which will be a nice change...
