oh... well if it means anything to you, I'll be trying to finish the Leo2 buy Friday, so two or three more vids, then I won't be making any vids for about a week or so. I'm renovating the Man Cave so I'll have no where to film or build.
You can catch up. haha.

Ah man, I've missed sooooo much over the holidays! Gonna sit back tonight and catch up on this one though
Great build, love the camo and that armour makes my eyes water just looking at it!!
Hope the renovation goes well - it only seems like yesterday I was looking at all the pics of the cave being built and set up - where does the time go!

Wow Mike, that looks great - superb work on the birdcage. Just like when Paul took shots of his photo etch covered Tiger these photos are just beautiful
Keep this great build rolling along for the last stages.

Things with the cave are going fine, just waiting for the counter tops and the cupboards to arrive tomorrow.
As for the Leo2... I'm afraid that I've knocked her off a chair while I was moving some things.
She smashed on the concrete floor of my storage room.
I must have stood there for about 30 seconds swearing my face off at my stupidity.
After inspection I believe she's fixable. Mostly just broken antennae and scuffed paint.
I'm just glad that I only had the base coats on and no weathering. Easy to fix.

I haven't looked too closely at her, but at first glance she looks to be fixable.
I'll know more when I put her under the good lights.

Marvellous work on your Leo Coen

! The NATO camo scheme you've applied here looks stunning and as you already mentioned in one of the videos ... I can imagine that the paintwork was a pretty hard piece of work on this model (especially on the slat armor)

! Very well done

!

Well I'm back at her, I managed to get some decals on her and now I'm starting the Ultimate washes on the tracks and dark dirt to the hull and turret. After that it's time for more washes.
