Hi all
As some of you may know...i tend to scratch build ..or do very heavy conversions for my armour ,....i am at the moment in a bit stop with the a-39 tortoise ...and that's down to having the main gun ball mount made and the barrel its self ....so ..i have a lump of spare time to look at other builds ..
So here i am looking for ideas ...and no i dont want to do yet another king tiger ...panther ...sherman... but i am happy to use parts for them
Any one got some ideas ...and i am looking tanks that may not have been attempted before ? ....

Hi mcevoyi,
You must log but only prevented the look from Russian prototypes. Whatever it almost does not exist are Italian tanks.
greetings Edwin

Hello mcevoy...you build 1/6 scale correct..... Here's one I've never seen except in 1/35 th
The M50a1 ONTOS... in 1/16 .. an almost impossible task because of the lack of parts.... and relatively small hull... in 1/6...I think would prove to be quite the challenge...the upside to the build is the upper and lower hulls are similar in triangulated armor as your TURTLE

How about a Canadian Ram. We built damn near 2000 of the things but they were never used in combat and most got coverted to troop carriers and self propelled guns.
