Here's my tanker, which I've started by painting some of it H30.

The bit's I've test fitted so far seem to be a good fit, so I'm looking forward to this build.

Thanks Ratch!

I've now built all the major sub assemblies.

Next step is to paint the undersides of these so they can be attached to the chassis.

It's all coming along quite nicely!

Now we're back, I'm trying to get this one done.

I've now got it largely assembled:

It's only really missing the wheels, which is good.

I know it's been a while since I posted anything on this, but it has progressed.

It's almost completely painted now, only the detailing left to do!
