My another Frankenstein - T26E4

[EddyK]

Eddy,
Good afternoon. Extremely cool additions! My only note is when you paint, be careful not to paint over the 'Slammer' ;o)
regards,
Painless

Thanks! Of course I'll do my best to save this Art! It's like the raisin on the cake!

But You're right! Since I'm in this hobby, I like to have more tanks, WW2 models and different parts! For now I have 8 Danbury mint Jeeps, 4 Highway 61 trucks, 3 1:18 German trucks and 10 tanks... And this is only the second year...

OH don't tell me about those Danbury Jeeps...almost bought two that were on EBAY...both went for about 60 with shipping ...those things are nice...but my RC mentality kicked in and I passed on them lol.... "they must be able to work" echoed in my conscience ...in hind sight I should have went for them
Was able to lock down a Revell 1/16 VW Bug....going to figure out how to make it run..

All in all though...I think one of the most difficult tasks is to lock down parts...especially nice guards like those....Lucky for me Sassgrunt had a few ...and I was able to copy and make a jig so I can make them myself

Great build... planning on any winter battles?

PS..2yrs....that means you're a veteran builder no? ...I just made 1yr in September.... so I have a ways to go lol

Hi, ALPHA!
I'm planning to make my own battlefield... That's why I'm making some collection of the technics and buildings...
About winter battles - it depends on the amount of the snow - my tanks aren't hermetic.
Two years of the modeling isn't so much. I still feel as newbie in modeling, there are such high level masters on this forum, that I should learn a years to make such high quality models as they do...

Eddy,

really sweet job on that Pershing, man o man, makes me want to do one!

Cheers!

Thanks!

Yeah Eddy...I saw some of your set up in your other post ...think your battlefield will be awesome ...and just add to the fun ...funny...when I saw the word "technics" thought of explosives ....thought of an idea you might consider...instead of things that blow up...run some hidden air hoses and connect them to a compressor... have multi taps so you can create some special effects during play ...maybe even make some movies

I've always wanted to try to run my tanks on snow...saw so many videos on YouTube ...looks like a blast in comparison to ones I've seen where they run in mud

In a way ...if I think about it ..maybe 1or2 years in the hobby isn't that far along yet ... When I get to spy some of the stuff Sassgrunt has...and some of the stuff others on the board who have been at it longer ...it makes me wish I were in the Hobby 6 or 7 years ago lol...

HAVE A GOOD ONE EDDY

ALPHA

PS. the one silver lining to being a Newb.... we get new things coming out ..some better that what was available in the past
