The Turret And Gun Have Been Completed And Are Ready For Painting. Setting The Parts Of The Gun Barrel In Place And Holing Them With Clips While They Dry. Added The Smoke Grenade Launchers To The Rear Of The Turret. Joined Together The First Parts Of The Turret And Removed The Crest. I have also decided not to use the side gun ports, because of this I am going to fit the smoke grenade launchers to the rear of the turret. Next, onto the turret.I have chosen to go with the largest gun configuration. The Two Exhausts, I Will Paint These Separately Before Attaching Them. I’m Going To Use This As An Engine Cover. The Storage Box Completed And The Emblem Has Been Sanded Off. The storage box I have removed the logo from and am mounting it horizontally as an engine cover. Next onto the main body and some of the components, again I’m going to attach the exhausts after painting. Sticking Together The Hull On The Leman Russ Battle Tank. The Two Sides Of The Hull Are Now Stuck Together. I’m not going to fit the tracks at this time but I will add them once it is painted. Only Two Sprues But Good Castings With Lots Of Details.

The really cool thing about the Games Workshop stuff is it is quite customizable with lots of parts than can be switched out. So first off there are only two sprues of parts, of course, the tracks are solid plastic as this piece is designed for tabletop gaming. I haven’t made one of these for 20 years. A lovely little Games Workshop Leman Russ Battle Tank. So this is a nice fun little build that’s going to take me back to my childhood.
