My Armour

Here they are, (well 5 anyway - the replacement Tiger is in a box in the garage!) My collection of Heng Long Armour. All awaiting work and upgrading, not sure if I should start with the Stug; I like the idea of the Schurtzen, but not confident or skilled enough to complete it! But I do like the idea of getting the return rollers right  (which would be hidden by the Schurtzen anyway!) I already have some metal tracks etc so maybe that or a Pz III first!

I want to get the Pz IV upgraded too, change the barrel over for a longer one (F2) and maybe add the recoil. The other (non smoking) PzIII might get a radical makeover at a (much) later date. Perhaps to something unusual.

The Tiger took a tumble; I've looked around for a cheap non runner to do a lower hull swap, but have been unlucky so far (flea-bay) I have stick on zimmeritt and 2 sets of metal tracks, as well as gear boxes that were intended for 1 or both of the Tigers. Long term projects me thinks!

::)

Hi,

Tempted by the Sherman from Matto, and the sound of a Cromwell/Comet appeals......

Probably going to do the Stug first, followed by the Pz IV (I have plans...) and then the Tiger. Having said that, I'll probably tackle them together.... :o
