Hi all :wave: I wanted to get a head start on this months competition thread for July. With the holiday approaching here in the states I wanted to get this thread started early today. You are free to enter until the 8th.

Last months competition was excellent so let's see if we can keep up the pace. :thumbup:

Maybe you are out of tanks but I can enter one that we both put a lot of time into, Terry. :o) Here is a late War Tiger 1 originally built by Jackalope and painted by him from Heng Long, Tamiya and Hobby Boss parts. After I received the tank, I did a detail job and worked in the interior adding different servos, smoker, electronics, ( Clark TK-24 ) and speaker\sound from Maxmekker. This is a solid Tiger and the best running tank that I have. It is a heavy metal ground pounder! Here are the required photos and video link.

Here's my entry for July, A Coelian conversion I did for a friend.

It's a HL Panther , with standard running gear. The Coelian conversion is from Asiatam. I used a gear motor for the elevation. The targeting sights are tied into the barrels and elevates with them at the same rate. I tied the white LED's into the M/G to get a look more representative of the AA fire rate, and clear acrylic rod to light up the barrel ends..

Here's a short video, not professional by any means! :haha:
