Hi! I've treated my 20 day son to two tanks + pic

Post by Zenton »

Hi all

I've always fancied a RC tank. I used to be an avid player and collector of airsoft and I knew that they existed and thought what a great hobby for a father and son to share. I've always wanted a decent RC toy as I never had one as a child.

I liked the look and the price of the HL tanks and purchased a Panther, closely followed by a M26. I havent told my partner about the M26 and its hidden round my parents, I'm going to save it for Christmas.

I'm rubbish with painting and customisation, after looking at some of the fantastic builds on here I'm looking at getting the Panther painted and weathered. If anyone can suggest and recommend anyone that can help, please get in touch.

Hi, you need to tell us roughly where you live if you want a hand.
