Good move, MrChef: you beat me to the question. You have good reason to be proud of your skill: you would be horrified by mine. Now am I referring to cooking or fixing tanks? Both! :haha:
Wait a minute! :O "I have 1 Taigen Metal BB, 3 Heng Long Pro and 1 Heng Long "S" models." Oh, you're a sneaky one! ;)

It's been a long time since I've been active on any web forum so I'm working out image hosting and posting pics. I just started like an hour ago with Imgur. This forum is an older design that I have to remember but it's coming back to me.

A good tank commander never wants to prematurely reveal the cards he holds.

Sadly, Michael Wittmann never survived to give his thoughts on that statement. Nor his thoughts of why the German tank commanders feared the 17 pounder above the 76 :think:

It's very simple to post pictures. Either put the link address from Imgur between these brackets (picture 1) which turn up after clicking on the little mountain icon (picture 2) at the top of the writing window. Or use the attachment tab and post any picture under 3 MB directly on the forum.

Hmmm, I would have put you down as more of a Tamiya M1A2 Abrams kind of guy.
I guess you'll prove me wrong eh ;)

Ok I got it thanks! I'm happy how that running gear came out since its plastic and I only used model painting effects.

The tracks are painted a combination of 2 Tamiya Spray colors, Red Brown and Gunmetal.
