Clay - Nice build…interesting paint pattern.
my only question is markings…there is no bumper #s or stars…just wondering!!
Great stuff, especially with all the PE
Rounds Complete!!
Great job Clay! Where did you get the “tractor” pattern tires for that beast. I always loved the look of that tread pattern.
You’re a bigger man than I am for using all that PE on it… VERY nicely done bro!
Very nice… I’m working on a dragon M2A1 half frack now…That is some PE set…I wish I had that flooring when I started…Also nice paint pattern…I hop mine will show as well as this.

thanks Mike K-Dawg & Robert.
Mike i read that the 776th & the 899th tank Destroyer. had almost if not totaly obscured the view of there marking do to combat with the German armor. with mud. anyway heres the pic i got for this build.
hey K-Dawg Trakz makes a tire that’s like that but i’ve tryed FOREVER to get a set and NEVER could so i made my own here’s how i did that.
hey Robert this PE set from Griffon is way to big i didn’t put all of it on this kit. i’ll add the rest to my M3 Half Track. funny i just wanted the barrel at the time there was none. now RB makes one YIKES HAHA

Nice work on this one Clay, the mud-smeared camo came out nice. [B]
Hey Clay I even like it but it is an SPG you know.[H] Where’s the Camo Kid???
Nice trick with the tires guy.[Y]
Tony Lee[:)]
thanks wbill76 i seen that and had to see if i could pulled it off. not just OD something dif for U.S. armor.
hey Tony HAHAHAHA. got tired of trying to find Trakz kind of tire.
Clay
Sneaky monkey!!.. Good work on the tires!
That’s some very sharp work. The weathering is just great. Glad to see one of these finally built up. did you encounter any problems aside from the PE?
thanks again K-dawg
thanks tigerman. yep this thing has “some” fit problems. you have to sand cut shim and sand some more to make the fighting compartment fit the cab if you don’t you’ll get a downward look from the rear to the cab where they meet at the top of the fighting compartment and the cab… look at some builds and you’ll see this very aggravating occurrence. in a FSM last month or two months ago you’ll see this. and i know he went nuts asking why. cause i did on my lasy dragon half track build.
