WOW! Stupid me. I haven't done any builds or tank pics since they changed to format. It used to be so tedious doing it in the old setup. But this one seems to work better! so if people want to see my builds and jobs done let me know! Here is my most recent one...

M4A1 FL-10 done up in Egyptian Livery. You can read about it here: https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/m4a4-fl-10/
I didn't build this one but got it in a 3 way trade with my good friend Ren. This kit is a Turret kit from Ludwig in Germany mounted on a Mato M4A1 chassis. The lower is a HL but with metal sprockets, adjustable idlers, metal tracks, and metal bogies with bearings for smooth ride. As in the video it runs on a Clark TK60 with a Taigen speaker and a TARR smoker. It has upgrade metal gearboxes. I basically just took Ren's build and just modified details like the tool arrangement to match the French prototype, folded up rear cargo shelf, and of course custom paint and airbrushed markings. This one will be going up for sale soon as always... 🙂
Here is a little function video. Have to wait till the 3 feet of snow is gone to get outside... 🙂

Hi! I didn't realize it had been so long since seeing your goodies, so, of course, I would enjoy more photos of your builds. (There has been the usual amount of snow down here in southern Wisconsin, too, but in between the temps have melted each successive snowfall into at most spots where the plow trucks and snow blowers piled it up. This is weird.)

If your other models are same standard as this then you must have a very nice collection, well done.

Thanks Guys, appreciate the comments... ;-) I will load up somemore stuff as I go and maybe load some builds I did over the last while. Not really a collector, I just like to build them and sell them! :-)
