I haven’t done anything in the way of RC-Tanks in a while so I thought I’d dig out one of my unfinished projects. This is another build I started some time ago but never finished (does anyone else do this or is it just me?).
The reason I chose this one is the possibly imminent arrival of Hooben’s 1-16th scale Elefant and the availability of Asiatam’s Ferdinand/Elefant metal suspension units, wheels, sprockets and tracks. I’ve also been enviously watching Christian’s (Chris3’s) stunning Porsche Tiger/Ferdinand builds on this forum.
I finally gave in to temptation and bent the flexible-friend a bit more. When the Asiatam suspension units arrived I was fully hooked (again!).
This is what I’ve managed to get finished so-far. I was going to wait until I had completed it before posting some pics but I decided to post anyway as it’s beginning to look like an Elefant now. It is still very much WIP though. I’ll start a detailed build thread as soon as I have sorted out all the pics on my computer.
Hope you like it so far.
Cheers
Chris
Mother and child! Baby elefants look so cute don't they?
