Nice. I have friend wich run a engraving company, and he is trying to make me some of those schurtchen hangers as a test, and if they come out good I will try to have him make the sidefenders as a test and try. I got a woking buddy draw them in autocad for me wich he loads into the machine and etch out on a 0,3 ore other plate.

well keep us posted now , everytime I see an update I think I got to work more on my .. :-)

Thanks, but the primer did show one thing I had to fix.
I smoothed out the section and it looks much better now.

I made an attempt to modify the fire extinguisher to look more like the originals in these pics.

Love the extra details on the fire extinguisher! I'll be taking notes for when I do mine. I like the choice of colour, I might have to make mine a sister tank! (that or take the plunge and do some full on splinter camo)

It's really starting to come together! I do like the alternate coloured wheels. Quick question, what alterations did you do to fit the final drive covers? I have a set but no idea how to fit them!

Nice choice, do you have any pics of it?
If not, I have at least 1 pic of it from March of '45.
Let me know if you need a copy of the pic.
