MichaelC September. M4E8 "Fury"

Okay here is my take on the "Fury" built. No logs, but does have the name. Taigen all metal turret, Tamiya electronics upper and lower. Since it was a Sherman lower there was no recoil from the DMD, so ended up using the "servio" from RCTA to control the Taigen recoil unit. Kit bashed by me, weathered by Airbrushler (fellow tanker here) and Brad Pitt by dgsselkirk.

PainlessWolf November. Korean war Pershing M26 B-12

Here is another Oldie Goldy of mine from back in the Primeval Days of the Forum when Tigers ruled the Earth! This is a Build Bash ( by me ) using an Original Issue HL Pershing ' Snow Leopard' and a box full of Tamiya and scratch built pieces. Once completed, it was almost immediately destroyed by my Pup, Waylon ( he dragged it off the display table by the muzzle by accident ) and was laboriously rebuilt over another months long period. It has received a custom, one off airsoft barrel by the General, Taigen black steel gearboxes, the ( at the time ) updated Taigen electronics and is using one of the latest working Smokers. Tracks are new but not metal ( not needed for as much running as it does ) but the suspension front axles and idlers are now metal to give a little weight to the front. Paint is by me as well, Tamiya and Model Masters rattlecans with Tamiya markings. The Commander, Sarge, is a cleanup and repaint of the stock figure. This tank is up to help jump start the submissions. Be proud of your hard work, folks and show it off!
