It could present a problem fitting into our wok even if I could persuade the darn thing to keep still. :D I do hope the madness that is Christmas shopping is not driving you ever closer to the rubber room as it is in this household? :crazy: :crazy: shaun
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

Might be getting a touch of the ol' cabin fever....but nothing so dire as to need a visit from the guys in the white coats ;)
Try to live by the golden rules that take effect this time of year... Don't go to any malls for any reason...and don't make major purchases online :haha:

HAPPY HOLIDAYS WO2c....Give that woman of yours a holiday hug... it might just keep her from shopping :D

Well this is going to be a submarine post, but after all this time, I got to add a couple of details to the maligned munitions taxi and it's really made an improvement,
I still have to winterise the crew man but it's much more alive than it was, plus with the remnants of the new HL 2 option sound electrics that went pear shaped recently, it sounds heaps better too.

Looks great, Herman. I wonder if you could give it bergpanzer electronics and use it for reloading ammo to IR tanks on the battlefield? I know the Asp allows you to carry limited ammo (I think 40 rounds) and it would be awesome if the PzIII munitionsschlepper could run out there and send a signal to reload when you run out of ammo.
When FDR coined the phrase "The Arsenal of Democracy", he was talking about Detroit. Proud to live in the 2nd most violent city in America!!

Thats a good concept Mr 52, Im not set up as yet to IR battle, but its coming.
Really just wanted to add a bit more life to it.
Using the otherwise buggered dual sound H/L board that was burnt out is a plus for control and sound, and as there is no turret, its all I need.

Thank you Mr Kev, it was a simple extension of the theme having a White Tiger, just seemed to be required !
The crude H/L StuG loader that normally holds a dog figure now painted as good as can be, with a shell seems to bring the last ingredient to it.]
He needs a white sheet fitted, but otherwise he works in this application.

He needs a white sheet over his body as a smock.
His uniform is not really right for this but it will do
