Default A new challenge!

THIS TANK




PLUS THIS MESS OF PRINTING



WHICH IS THIS TURRET



PLUS A TON OF NEUROTIC WORK....
WILL MAKE THIS M47 PATTON TANK!
This is the tank outside my garrison at the San Deigo CANG Armory. (Where the M60A3) was stolen from in 1995. Ive stared at this tank for long over a decade and since being in this hobby have wanted to build one. I belive I can do it and its going to be a huge tear up of the pershing but well worth it. My tank will be this tank which is labeled for my long ago parent BG, 2-185th Armor BN. Fulmen Jacio

Who printed the turret for you or did you print it?

I had a friend print it for me. I purchased the files and am not at liberty to share them.

Is that the turret from the German guys? Looks pretty good. The engine decks of the M47 will be where you have the fun, will be interested to see how you go.
