Wow! More pictures please! And maybe one of the unditching beam across the top?

Do you think the motion pack will move just the 6 pounders or include the machine guns too?

Looks great!

Hi fellas.

Thanks for your kind comments, Brown I am not certain but I think the guns will be able to move with the options "I think" :idea:
Here's a few more pics there are about 24 or so on my facebook page as well, no build pics though Mark built this one. :D

The beam is fastened on with chains but I have that wrapped up on its own for now so that nothing is rattling around on the trip down.
I will take a few more pics in the museum if they let me.
Cheers Paul. :wink:

Hi all

Paul has returned the Mk4 here today, and it will be going to the museum tomorrow morning. We are very pleased with the finish, it's the best we have ever seen.

Answering a question earlier in this thread, the motion pack for the model will feature a pre programmed controller for the 6 pounders and all the machine guns. This unit will control motion, sounds and flashes for all the guns.

Mark

Awesome paint job Paul. It looks like it just rolled off the fields at Cambrai. Great work. What a fantastic looking model.
Best regards,
Bob

Hello there.

Thanks so much everyone for the great response :D. Its been a pleasure to do, and get the chance to be involved in a small way in the 100 year anniversary of the great war.
Here are a few pics of the old girl in the sunshine outside the museum and one in the factory when she briefly came home on Wednesday.

Lastly a big thanks to Gill and Mark for getting me involved and of course the tank museum as well.
Cheers for now Paul & Vinnie. :wink:
