Looks as if it's gonna be neat when it's finished. Can you tell me what paints you used on the gun breech - that looks really realistic. And are those brass shells, or are they painted as well?

Interior is coming along really well. I esp like those ready rounds in the turret. Drivers compartment looks awesome too ! Will look fantastic once you get the exterior painting/weathering done.
Keep sending us more pics !!
Cheers !!

Looking very good Charlie. You have put a lot of work into the interior so far. This should be a great example when you are finished.

Sorry I missed this thread.
The interior work/breech/stowed rounds ---- very very convincing. Good photo quality also. Keep us posted. This is a good one. Thanks for the paint tips on the breech-- I will give that a go.
