Well I finally got some time to do some model work. Got my footman loops mounted on the back of the turret and got some paint on the turret and chassis and differential cover.
I swapped in the newer taigen wheels that have the stamped spokes because they are appropriate for an ALCO tank. They were raw metal so I primed and painted them then baked the paint in the over at 350 for about an hour.

Now just to get to work making my lift rings brush guards and the like of detail compliment on the hull and it will be done.
