Looking very nice Paul. Very interesting subject.

VT 1-2 is finished bar final weathering. I’ll call it done here.
I am not sure if I’ll leave it Verlinden-esk like this, or whether I’ll just go for some dust, so as not to hide the detail I added to the suspension. However I have a few other builds I’ll concentrate on while I decide.

That looks great! I always thought the photos of the VT were photoshopped, but it was a genuine thing!
My own build of the M4 hull with T26 Pershing turret is done, and here are some really poor-quality pics of it! (I need to get it out into daylight…)
I’ll compile a list of runners and riders shortly, but we still have two weeks!

The Vargas 3D printed Best 75 Tracklayer “propaganda” tank is finished:
The red wheel & tracks are all but invisible once mounted under the hull.
Here are the pics I had to work with of the actual beast at its work:
As you can see, the model has a few differences from the photos but it still looks great and will be a welcomed addition to the display case. With that, this fun project is done.

But there’s a much longer list of builds without a final photo. As we have only 13 days left, any updates on your builds?
status?

Remember – if you started it here, it can be finished in the BTTNW5 campaign that will come along after this one closes!

Well, the build is complete, if not the final project, and that may well be the status quo for a fair while I’m afraid:

Almost there. Just need to make some time for painting. Using a duplicate hull MG parts, I put together a roof mounted MG.

My Maus is almost done. Just a coat of mat varnish and it is done. Probably tonight or tomorrow, but surely before the deadline

That looks great! (But kinda sad to hide all that kitbashing under paint…)

I have on occasion thought about leaving one of my conversions or spare parts specials unpainted but it just hasn’t happened yet.
Not to say that it won’t sometime in the future…..
