trying to find affordable ways to enjoy this hobby! :)

This section is for builds that are not strictly Tamiya or Heng Long. For instance, replacing the electronics from a WSN or Matorro, or even a scratch-build.

Also on the theme of cheap wee projects here are some anti-tank hedgehogs I made form old chopsticks and barbed wire that the heavy tank can crush that is garden wire twisted and then painted. I would recommended a thinner gauge but this is what I had laying around.

That's quite an impressive battlefield hulk you've turned the cheapo Tiger 1 into, Stu. :thumbup: Once you have a collection of allied and axis armour, it will look good in a mocked-up Kursk battlefield setting in the garden (so long as the neighbours are not keekin' in :D ).
