Default Fury

So, when I saw the movie back when it was first released I immediately wanted to build the tank. I thought it was pretty neat and would make for a keeper. I got my hands on a Tamiya Sherman for parts from my buddy Reaper. I then began to compile some needed parts over the next few years. Yes, I was in no rush. I worked on other tanks while parts were dribbling in. I got some schumo stuff from ETO armor of course. Then some other stuff from Nick Aguilar...and then began making some scratch parts from brass. It took a long time to get to where it is now, and still more to go, but as I said, I am in no rush with it. Thought I should share some pics here for you guys. I am now waiting on some shapeways parts to arrive for the .30 cal. As I wait I am doing some small details when time allows... I hope to have electronics installed soon and then paint. Hope you guys like it. Nick's turret is fitted with servo recoil, custom bracket for same and micro gear reduction motor for elevation.
