Hi From Devon UK

Post by Gra30 »

Hi all,

I am grahm from Devon UK.
Been a memeber on here a while but not posted before so a big hello.

i serve in the Royal Marines and live with my wife.
I am mainly a figure sculptor and painter but I make the odd AFV and over the last few years started on RC.
I enjoy the painting and making really and at present i have a few on the go
Tamiya tiger 1, Panther and King Tiger.
2 Heng Lons, Stug III and Panzer III although I intend to marry that to my bandai Stug IV.

Here are a few pics of my King Tiger progress, it was the old static version made years ago that I stripped. I upgraded with RC hull etc. It has sound, rotation but I have left the recoil out as it was getting a bit more expensive and easier to buy the RC kit at that stage.
I added screens from scratch a few extras, drilled the tracks and battle damage, the hull is at early stages and will be minus skirts.
I am selling 1 of my spare panthers so please look at classifieds if interested.
