I'm not sure this will ever translate into a 1/16th model...It's a very ambitious undertaking to make all the components work...what's interesting is...it was genius of the Animator to choose pink for this tank :thumbup: ....because for some reason it just plain ol' matches it :haha:

I really enjoyed painting the two of these...the adventure went without a hitch...actually took less time than I anticipated...all in all...that auction plus the additional tracks was well worth the expense :D


PANZER VOR!!!! GentsImage

Jeezus . H. Christ Mr Alpha !!
What have I told you about bushwhacking peoples eyes with the pink-tank thingo ?? :O 8O
How bout a warning/parental guidance rating/censor rating before you just "whip it out" so to speak hmmm :wtf:

I was watching close to see if I could figure out that tank you called a Lee Grant, and it has the strangest top turret, then I see a familiar Lee Grant, but the flamin things destroyed my retinas before I could reach for my M.I.B. shades :problem:

Its easy.........................."Caution-rated 'P' , contains low level construction violence scenes and PINK BLOODY TANKS" !!! :/ :/
:wave:

Here you go Herman....After acquiring the kit...I googled LEE/GRANT CDL...the tank has quite the moniker and apparently the kit has been around for years...more common now in 1/72nd scale

If anything else...It's cool looking :D
