Sassgrunt had mentioned earlier that showing off a neat little 1/72 Pershing with the new Truck in sort of a Korean Vignette might be interesting and fun. I thought so too. I even dug out a Dragon Wagon and a Sherman in the right scale to go along. Enjoy!
Pics ( No longer clickable but of a good scale for detail )

Ecam!
Thanks for looking in! The small scale here was fun and challenging. I'm currently looking over the next work, a possible Panther, Porsche King Tiger or Walker Redo...New Lowers or detailing in the case of the Walker.

I have the 35th Dragon Wagon (M25) and the Tractor only (M26). I've pulled them out a few times in the past 10 years. But I look at all the parts and put them back away. I used to love building those kits, but once I discovered 1/16th...

Good Morning!
I hear you. The 1/72 scale here was a test to see if I was recovered enough to join back in the Modeling Games. I have got a big stash of 1/76, 1/72 and 1/35 scale kits that I will get to once in retirement. ;o)

...Those Dragon Wagons are complex in any scale!!!

That's what I thought eleven years ago. Score: Stash 100/Ed 10.

Prof.!
Hello! We will hold out hope that you work your way through all of them before deciding to call it a day! Santa brought me a couple of Takom kits in 1/16 and 1/35 this last Holiday. I have left them out to remind myself to stay involved in Plastic as well as RC.
I still try to build ref kits in smaller scale for detailing the big RC runners as well. Whew!
