Hello

Post by Muskrat »

Hi all. Just got myself a couple of 1:16 scale tanks and thought it might be wise to join and learn how to make the best of them. I have been a modeller for too many years, mainly maritime and armour but in 1:350 and 1:35 scales.

Thanks. Here are some of my 1:35 scale builds. Hopefully the experience I've gained over the years can be transfered to bigger stuff.

Welcome to the forum,

Your 1/35th painting and weathering techniques will transfer over to the big boys, that is where I started out as well.

Welcome aboard Dave. There goes the neighbourhood! :(

Truth be told, Dave and I have known each other for years now, and have been egging each other on to get our first RC tank after we both got the "new" Hobby Boss Tiger I. Could be the start of something big :)
