Thanks Mr K....what is that Propoganda :haha: :haha: :haha:
Seriously though...if you are going to put sounds like that in your tank...maybe make one separate for that function...that way you can have that on the side (damaged maybe smoking) with sounds a blazin while you use your RC to mimic the battle ;)

There are actually more....mostly the crew of the Puffer Fish team of Oarai....in 1/35 there is a wider variety...but 1/35th isn't my focus.. ;)

Research Tank: CARRO ARMATO M13/40 Vintage Tamiya

This has got to be one of Tamiya's best....the build was effortless....no cussing...no fussing...everything just fit so nice
I actually broke a smile while assembling this...as well as kicked back for a short while :D

Great Model...I would recommend this for anyone...any level of skill...experienced builders will have a blast :D

This version of the Carro was never featured in the Match with Anzio in the video....it was featured in the Manga...(or Illustrated comic )
Image
This was an excellent purchase for me ...as it was a package deal with the Crusader :clap:

Like yours as well Kiaser :clap: ...I wouldn't go as far as to say these builds are brilliant...as they lack all the detail painting as well as decals ;)
They do and will serve the purpose of their creations though ....you know the plan ;)
Yes diversion tactics :D :think: may be a large loud speaker mounted on the tank :haha: :haha:
LOL...The last video on your list was funny...how it said "NO POLITICAL STATEMENT" :haha:
But yup ...I can see a Mr K Production....have the Tiger pushed off to the side (triple smokers going with battle sounds)
as the Soviet army rumbles by protected by their Js2 :D

Flames would be outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!! :haha: :haha: ....You're fireproofing would have to be just as LOL.....
:D still it has nice detail on the tamiya tank I agree it is a nice model of the CARRO and the colour looks good :thumbup: it is amazing how they can do a excellent job on some of there models then the quality drops off on others :/ .
The detail admittedly isn't as good as maybe an Italeri....but dang was it good fitting...I think there was only one part that had extended flash on it ....it was a real pleasure to work on....Unfortunately right after ...those Modelkasten tracks arrived for my TE KE...hanging that model up :'(
