Default RE: Pershing Build..........Slow Roast



lol! RSEA, we're kind of on the same wave length! lol That was kind of my inspiration...well, more inspired by FOOSE's signature two tone paint jobs using vibrant colors and black on Mustangs. What's even more funny is my initial plan was to embellish it with a " V8 liquid cool" rather than the M26 Pershing....but I thought that would heighten the cheese factor x's 2 more than it already is. But you'reright, it will be two different tanks, I'm going for realism on the surface and figured I'd keep my fun with in....the tank that is. lol

And no matter what amount to detail I add to this project, it won't be a shelf queen! I don't own 20 somethin air brushes and a closet full of pigment for nothing! lol And no plans to add ground FX or pin striping, lol. Thanks for the compliments and taking the time to look!</p>


Philipat, thanks a bunch for the link! There may be differences in the diameter of the road wheels by a small degree, but I think those bolts and nuts will work! I'll probably insert those at a later time, right now it the pressing in detail seems to be doing the job. Trying to slow up the investment on accessories for the Pershing.</p>

I totally forgot that I lied to the wife until she reminded me today by asking "when my other tank comes in?" I lied to here when I got the Pershing, saying that I got a 2 for 1 &amp;1/3 cost deal setting it up for a future purchase in case I like the Tamiya tanks....well I do damn it. I could be a good husband and fess up.....but sometimes being bad feels so good! lol</p>
