Well, here is where I am:

I have a scale 'model' of a Tiger I tank that I plan on using to get my
dimensions off of.  In case anyone cares, it's the Tiger tank from the model
quality WW2 toy line they sell at toys-r-us - and it is really nice.

So, I will be ready to start framing up the tank itself very soon.  More
pics of the inside of the tanks would be nice, and/or more info about the
framing, etc.  Also, more detailed shots of the cannon system would be
helpful.

any tricks or traps you know of (besides what's on the page already)?  What
thickness sheeting did you use, and how did it stand up to paint hits ...
What kind of batteries are you using?

Basically anything more you have would be great to see (from an
inspirational point of view).

thanks,
/brian
