Hi, I´m Luis from Portugal. I start building static models (aircraft 1/32scale) and some rc electric cars. A few years ago I bought my first 1/16 tank (Heng Long Pershing) and now my models are:
M26 Pershing, M24 Chaffee, M4 Sherman Calliope, M36B1 Jackson, M10 Wolverine (mid prod), M7 Priest, M3 Lee, M4A3E2 Jumbo 75mm and 76mm, M12 155mm GMC, M30 Cargo Carrier, M4A1 Sherman 76mm and M4A3 Sherman 75mm and 105mm.
Now I start building a LVT-4...

Re: Hello from Portugal
Hello Luis, and welcome again.
You have a good collection of tanks.
I once had a holiday in the south of Portugal, very enjoyable, especially as it wasn't a tourist area.
Two particular memories stick with me, the local beach had weird sand that wouldn't brush off, it had to be washed off. And the bread rolls I ate were the best bread rolls I've ever eaten.
Enjoy the forum.
