Looking forward to the progress on this. I've got something big planned as well, but not quite this big. If you can make it to RTX I might try to come out for it too.

This has got to be one of the coolest things that I've ever seen! I'm really excited to see the end result!

UPDATE
A minor one be it that, but got around to finally sealing the back half of the tank. By sealing I mean I've closed all the gaps so no critters or bugs can get into the inside of the tank. I have a few more panels and boards left to do for the front half before it too is sealed, then I can focus on water sealing and painting the outside. Going to order 2 gallons worth of Block Filler Primer this week and have it delivered to Home Depot so I can do that next weekend.
Also, I painted the back interior both red and blue (For Red VS Blue of course) and added carpet on the inside for more comfort. I plan to work on it weeknights again just so I can get it sealed and out of the garage, because Winter is coming and I need room to work on the treads over the Winter months.

Sorry I haven't been posting updates. Due to weather I've put Sheila under tarp until the warmer weather rolls back around in March-April. Next I'll be working on the treads when the sun comes back.

So I see you've given her a name eh, seems fitting. RvB FTW

That name is partly my fault, as my first two sets of armor are...very blue. People get me confused with Caboose.

I think we were all gonna call her Shiela anyway, even if the name was something else

filis pretty sure that's what he call her before church turned off the friendly fire and got himself shot.

I have one panel left there, then I'll be all done with the demolition and can begin with the construction.

Are you building a tank as well then? Just a little confused by your comment here.
