Thanks Guys, couple of interruptions slowed the progress, but still making good headway, canopy masks off the canopy sections, upper turret done and rear Mg barrel attached too. Main Rear canopy glued in place while front canopy is dry fitted at this stage.

Wheels also prepped to fit too...be done real soon....

Thanks again Guys, still pushing forward with little interruptions....but real close now.
Undercarriage front and back in place, Gunsight fitted to rear Machine gun, Upper turret now in place too.
Front Gun sight, and Barrel fitted and added cannon belt too.
Dry fitted the canopy over the Cannon and sight....still has to come off to add one extra thing inside but cant do it until early next week until my new .3mm drill bits arrive, you will understand when I get there.
Couple more things to add to complete everything else and she will be ready by Sunday, with the above single exception.
