Watched allot of the Chieftains Hatch lots of interesting tanks out there think one was a Russian Project 7, the Maus in Russiawas interesting even though just a hollow tank.
I like have said follow Plasmo & Andy's Model Shop in building models good tips, some of Plasmo's works are exceedingly well above professional I recommend watching the series he did building the Yamato OMG what attention to detail on such a huge model.
I'll post some more pic tomorrow as not much has happened I mean boring as pics of road wheels being assembled and painted!
