RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Where abouts are you in Kent Ad Lav? I'm in Redhill and RMs a few miles away in Dorking so we meet up quite a bit for tank and car runs. Boxhill and Leith Hill have some great spots for a bit of RC fun.

Not sure what version your planning to do but these might help if your going for the up armored version I did.

The gold bolts are just bling dots brought from one of these shops that sells all the bits to make your own cards. To make the armor panels I took the body to work and photocopied each side then used that as a template for the extra bolt on armor, after several other aborted attempts it was the easiest way to go. The guns from Mcfarlane Naval gunner figure and its held on by two magnets which allow easy removal and it also to swing but not pop out of its hole and get damaged.

Lights lenses are from a fog light set off ebay. You just need the lenses and this set gives spares!

Radiator mesh is just halfords filler mesh about £2 a sheet. Jerry cans from ebay, cant find at present but you do get a pair on the Holiday buggy sprue which will do. The tow hooks are Tiger 1 versions from Forge bear and they sit on plasticard holders. The stowage hooks running over the roof are paper clips cut down to size and glued into holes.

Gives me scope for mine

Started a build thread and bought a hummer book!

Of course if your feeling a little flush you could mount a 40mm grenade launcher instead!

Bloody hell they're taking the mick with that price! Wouldn't be too hard to make a decent looking Mk19 from plasticard and styrene tubing, it's just a box with a bit of detail on it.

My thoughts exactly, and if you could cast it..........

We must sort out this resin casting idea we keep discussing.
