Love your work bench.

My work area is my coffee table with a pad on it.

If you want to experiment, read the section on "painting and weathering."

A Bulldog was one of the first bigger than 1/72 tanks I ever built as a kid. Can't remember the brand but I got it from the K-Mart in Bell's Corners, Ontario. Why do we remember these silly things from 55 years ago? Destroyed in the Great Sandbox Offensive of '68.
I would've killed for a RC Bulldog like yours back then...

JanDeBoeff: I think the Bulldog was better known outside of North America, at least outside the U.S., than in the U.S. Nonetheless, I like the two Taigen M41s that I've had for years. One of these days I need to fix the vision blocks so they aren't cocked skyward and correct the toolbox sides. Then I can repaint and weather one for greater accuracy in its, what, 1/14th scale?

The Bulldog was (I believe) the only American tank to battle the Russian T34/85.
It was during the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1962.

The Bulldog had its way w/ the T 34 until they ran out of ammo.

The Korean war called - They would like their M4, M26 and M46 kill tally's back, as well as the M24's dignity, that was lost as a result of its pop gun not being able to penetrate the T34's armour...

it's a Heng Long so it should be 1/16th scale i believe

Should be, but not really! Their most out of scale tank but a good runner.

If you find Louis' thread on how he rebuilt the Bulldog, you can see just how out of scale and incorrect the HL is. For that reason, I converted mine to a T49.
