    Here it is guys, the Ugly Duckling all done and dusted. It's been a fun build and I'd like to extend my thanks to all you folks for your kind and encouraging comments and the snippets of help that have come my way.

    Wow! Top notch work! The weathering is superb. Painting that gun turret must have taken some patience...
