I used for the BT-7
turret shell. I covered a styrofoam core with aluminum foil and applied
fiberglass and resin to the outside of it.

Hah! No, not worried about shorts. Resin doesn't like sticking to the
aluminum. Mostly it stays on the form. Any remaining on the inside is easily
peeled off. The only parts that give me fits are areas of the foil that are
folded ofer that I've missed, thy have to be chipped off.

Welcome!
Ditto what everyone else has already said. I would also go for the
Jagdtiger. MUCH simpler. No turret to mess around with. A Jagdpanther
would also be nice! You may consider the C6C as a first controller. Very
simple and quite inexpensive. Good luck!

this group,
unless you count weapons sets. The largest military vehicles I've seen in
department stores have been in 1/24th scale. I'll keep watching.

This is more like the method that I'd described. Sad, the pics seem to be
missing.

That is interesting. Due to it being a fan motor, I would check it for an
internal ground. Mounting may also be an issue.

is all wrong, though. Perhaps with a good deal
of chopping and a thick layer of camo paint.

of epoxies. It's
flexible and doesn't hold paint well so it's no good for exposed seams. Good
luck with the JB, great stuff if you can get it to stick.
