It could present a problem fitting into our wok even if I could persuade the darn thing to keep still. :D I do hope the madness that is Christmas shopping is not driving you ever closer to the rubber room as it is in this household? :crazy: :crazy: shaun

Might be getting a touch of the ol' cabin fever....but nothing so dire as to need a visit from the guys in the white coats ;)
Try to live by the golden rules that take effect this time of year... Don't go to any malls for any reason...and don't make major purchases online :haha:

HAPPY HOLIDAYS WO2c....Give that woman of yours a holiday hug... it might just keep her from shopping :D

Well this is going to be a submarine post, but after all this time, I got to add a couple of details to the maligned munitions taxi and it's really made an improvement,
I still have to winterise the crew man but it's much more alive than it was, plus with the remnants of the new HL 2 option sound electrics that went pear shaped recently, it sounds heaps better too.

Looks great, Herman. I wonder if you could give it bergpanzer electronics and use it for reloading ammo to IR tanks on the battlefield? I know the Asp allows you to carry limited ammo (I think 40 rounds) and it would be awesome if the PzIII munitionsschlepper could run out there and send a signal to reload when you run out of ammo.

Thats a good concept Mr 52, Im not set up as yet to IR battle, but its coming.
Really just wanted to add a bit more life to it.
Using the otherwise buggered dual sound H/L board that was burnt out is a plus for control and sound, and as there is no turret, its all I need.

Thank you Mr Kev, it was a simple extension of the theme having a White Tiger, just seemed to be required !
The crude H/L StuG loader that normally holds a dog figure now painted as good as can be, with a shell seems to bring the last ingredient to it.]
He needs a white sheet fitted, but otherwise he works in this application.

He needs a white sheet over his body as a smock.
His uniform is not really right for this but it will do
