Mark IV Tadpole.

Hold the the popcorn guys. I've ordered the Aber barrels for the 6 pdr's, and the Lewis guns. They're coming from Poland, as well as the mortar I've already ordered. The pics of the real thing doesn't show the Lewis guns fitted, but I couldn't help myself. The Aber aftermarket barrels look to awesome. I've decided to leave one of the crew hatches open also, which means I'll be adding some interior. This is going to turn into quite a project for a machine that never even made it to the battlefield.
 
oh ok...I guess I'll wait...

All the figures for the Tadpole Dio have arrived. I'm using seven, the other two came a few days ago. I'm waiting on the mortar, and the 6 pdr/ Lewis guns. They're somewhere between Georgia and Poland.
 
Everything I've ordered for the build has arrived. I have seven figures to choose from. I may not use them all, but I plan on building an MK IV in combat, and I'll use the others in that scene. The Aber guns I was waiting got here today. Problem is they sent the set for the female. Since it came all the way from Poland I'm going to use the brass Lewis guns, and the kit's 6 pounders, they're pretty good. It's time to get to

building on this!
 
Ok, first of all I've grossly underestimated the amount of time it will take to get this kit built up. Second of all my plan to add an interior is a big nope!🙅
So far glueing it up hasn't been a trip down

No Sweat Lane. I really thought I'd be laying down some color tomorrow...LOL.
However, I think it's going to finish out nice.
 
That thing must have been a bear to work on. I saw your update and started reading about "Tracks" but had the Constitution on my mind. :blink Tracks????
Carry on :soldier
