Hello from Virginia

Post by Conan_the_Hungarian »

Hello Everyone,

I'm a longtime builder of military models, and a modelrailroader as well. My first RC tank build was the original 1/16 scale Tamiya Leopard A4. Built when I was 16 years old. Last completed RC build 1/16 scale Tamiya King Tiger, Henschel turret.

Working on a the following 1/16 scale kits: Tamiya M1A2, Tamiya M4 Sherman with Nick's E8 conversion parts, Tamiya Panther G, HL M1A2. Plan on building M36 with Nick's parts that I already have. Need to figure out hull. Probably Tamiya Sherman pan with Mato M10 metal top.

Great site! Cheers Everyone!

John

Welcome, Conan!
In the Scottish Highlands, where I live, there's a place called Conon Bridge..it could almost be your village.. tho' it's not quite 'Conan' enough. :)
Looks like you have already assembled a fine stable of tasteful armour there. Nice collection. :thumbup:

Welcome from the southern tip of Illinois. I’m also a long time model railroader but since I’ve started my rc tank journey I’ve hardly touched a rail.
