Soviet Tank Group Build

[Mini Me]

Does an SU 100 count as a tank?........sort of a Russian StuG on Steroids :tongue-out3: .....if so, I'm in.

No really Rick, as the turret didn't turn. That seems to be the only difference that I can see. One of my favourite German Crushers .:nerd: The Germans were rightly concerned when they saw it. it knocked out everything as its shell was so large and armour piercing. One hit on a Tiger turret could kill all the crew inside.I'm looking for a second hand one :smiling3:

Hi Lee

Just spoke to Junior, he is in. It will be him on his own other than a bit of guidance.

We already have some Valentine's for Lend-Lease, hence my question earlier.

Thanks for the idea.

Rick. The SU100 was a Soviet Tank so it counts you can have any Soviet tank captured or Lend Lease or ones they built so if you have a SU100 your in. Shall I add you to the list??

Hey Lee,

Oh what the heck.........I've got 3 Rooskie tanks in the stash, but one is more than half built. Glad you allowed the SPG's as I have the Trumpeter SU-152 late as one of them too. I also have a Zvezda T-34/85 that's only had the hull glued together (4 pieces) IIRC. Great to see you going ahead with this GB Lee. Should be a good one and it gives me time to finish Peter's GB too!!!....

I'll have to look at the T-34/85 to make sure it's not more than 25% started and get back to you on what I will build. Looks like JR is all over this too!!!

Yes I’m glad to have you and that will work. I read everyone’s GB and decided on the date so it wouldn’t interfere with other GB. I’ll add you to the list let me know what you are building when you get time. JR thinks it’s still Christmas after I posted this GB but I’m glad he’s here to keep it in line

It will be a Valentine. 1/72 Plastic Soldier Company quick-build wargaming kit. Just need to decide on the version. We have the option of a Mk II, III or IX.

Thanks Andrew so glad he’s in

Thanks Andrew so glad he’s in

So am I.

Thought he might take some persuading but no. We even get a Russian commander too, so he can have a go at figure painting!!

More great news! How old is he? I’m going to add some Zvezda figs to mine I think.

[Lee Drennen]

I'm guessing that's a reboxing of the old Esci kit from the 1970s Lee.....

Nick. I did some research and yes it’s a old Esci kit. Re-boxed with new decals by Italeri in 2007.
