The tank ends look great, Steve. Guess we'll have another update on this one in about 6 months? You don't have to follow my lead, when building one of these Wedicos....well make that Wedico/Tamiya hybrid!
OH I just get in these detail moods and nothing gets done I'm still trying to decide fender style stock or go crazy either way I'm going to make a die of some sort .

sometime backed up on orders

Make me a hood and front fenders, Steve. Seriously, I'd be interested, if you ever got around to offering such parts.

The problem as I see it is you need a Huckgun to install em. We use a lot of these in aircraft mods but the gun is like $2K and as far as I know the smallest they make is 3/16"
