Greatings, comrade tankers!
Today I'd like to announce You my new victim...
It starts in the autumn 2013, when I bought not expensive Tamiya Pershing shell without any electronics, excepting motors and gearboxes.
But then in the June 2014. I found on the ebay Heng Long Pershing, that was moded in to the T26E4.













When it arrives, I opened it and found there RX13 electronics and plastic gears:



And, of course, I decided to change it to the Taygen 2,4 GHz system and black steel gearboxes, that I found in my storage.



I took out BB shooting mechanism and installed Heng Long recoil and IR system:





But then I decided to use Tamiya hulls and Heng Long turret...
And there comes my another Frankenstein!

One more step:









Then I took a little bit closer look at different T26E4 pictures and decided to remake work:









And I made copper light guards instead of plastic ones:



Now I am in doubt - to place this construction on front armour or leave the art untouched:





Thanks to the Dave "Forgebear" for the metal hatches:

Something more:











Some more detailing:

Postman brought a parcel, that makes me smile very wide!!!
There is the content of the parcel:

One evening I added more details:























The next step will be the repainting and maybe installing of the IBU2 Pro system...

Small update:

Your spershing is nice but u got on it few mistakes , u should cut of outside part of side mudcovers and add black camo and some other details but in overall is nice i begrudge yr t81 tracks cause i want it too but i am student and dont have enough money on it, if you want check out my spershing

Nice work indeed
I´d like to ask you, how did you manage to make such small threads and nuts for attaching spare track links to the turret?
Looks damn good and realistic!

Nice work
