RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

This is a wonderful thread you've shared with all those wrecks in detailThank you! I must agree this is the best scale tank wreck I've seen.

Thank you all for the coms I still have 3 more tanks in the line waiting to get the same treatment.

Here this is, I think, done for now.

Some more details pictures after more work:

Wow that's fantastic

Yip, the peeling paint effect is outstanding.
Great addition to any battlefield when post war armour is getting about.
Can see a row of M1's all facing towards it ready to get rounds on target !

Well I can't imagine (well in fact I do) the result of a row of M1's or Leopard's all firing at the same time. Years ago when I was in the army, at Bergen Firing Range we were used to fire at old Patton's some time with real ammo including for the ''fun'' HEP rounds too (usually the last day) and when we were having a look at the effects it was incredible. Of course they are old tanks, of course the metal is stressed due to the many impacts they gets etc but the way a sabot just go through it like a hot knife through butter is impressive as well as the effects of an HEP round, the plate of metal as well as schrapnels removed on the inside due to the impact is incredible.

I know this is an old thread, but this is the first time I viewed it.

That is impressive work. The impacts are great but I'm truly impressed with the weathering. The sheet metal parts are rusted heavy compared to the thick armor. The paint chips and such really do make it look like a 20 year old surplus tank that was pulled out on the range. Stunning!
