I saw when you built that with the schumo turret, i looked at the website you said you got it from but it wasnt listed. Must be a real low key distributtion network on it.

Well, my T84 tracks arrived today. And, inspired by Ad Lav, I'm about to start tearing them down, along with the Tamiya track, to change the guides. I'm going to start on this while I wait on the rest of my parts to arrive.
The build has begun!

I've also started on Old Phyllis. The base was purchased from Rich.
So far, I've begun work on the muzzle, and begun adding details. I gutted the electronics. Don't know what board to use yet.
I'm going to add a cast effect to the hull and turret, and fix the air scoops, as the base should be inset in the hull, and not on top, unlike the M4.

20 minutes, and this is the result. The only part of the Impact tracks getting used are the track shoes. I'm going to have to clean flash off each one too. I'm switching the end connectors to the Tamiya as well, since the Impact connecters bind on the sprocket.

Ha ha, i remeber how much my fingers hurt 20 years ago assembling the metal sherman tracks on my dmd non option sherman.
Your going to texture the a1 hull? Om my, well refer to my taigen mongrel build on how i did it. Thougn that tank is so nice i would reccomend not doing it, just becase at two feet away you cant tell. To do it right you need to remove all the brush guards and tools. If you do, soak the brush guards with liquid cement from the inside amd they will become loose and you can pull them out and then replace them. I still have the ones from my other mato hull of you wamt them as backups incase you break one.

Another way wouls be to glue a plate across the inside of the roof and then glue a circular plate in the hole. Then trim and fill it all then cut the oval hatch in to the new roof.
im planning to do this on my coming A1E8.
