Soviet Tank Build GB Chat

[GerryW]

I’ll be starting mine towards the end of the week….the lawn ornaments are taking a little longer to finish than they should and I only like to have one major thing on the go at a time….

Carefull, I've heard that they get annoyed being called that and an axe to the knees isn't good

Absolutely Gerry. They can give a new meaning to the term “hammer toes” as well…..and those pointy tin hats are just about groin height :surprised:

Really tempted to use one or two of the figures from the zvezda motorcycle kit with the aerosan (only has one figure) - it comes with 4, two of which are 'relaxing' - one playing a piano accordion, the other pouring a drink from a bottle - be something different :smiling5:

Guys with everything going on now and you don’t feel like building or posting or feel like you have too all the time it’s ok if you need a break we ALL understand please take care of yourself first the GB can wait.

Well said Lee. Dark times indeed.

I ain't letting this "Rooskie" Tank GB kick my butt.......I'm pressing on. Even got a "Rooskie" 'copter coming for the chopper GB! Hope I don't get a bad "Rep" for being a "Commie" sympathizer. :tongue-out3: :thumb2: Rick H.

Agree Lee. Not good. I think Junior will carry on but I'll give him the choice

[Mark1]

I'm with you Rick, modelling is my escape so I'll be cracking on with it!

[Lee Drennen]

I’ll be chipping away at mine when I feel like it I just thought I would post this to be considerate to others who don’t feel like building at this time. People deal with things in different ways.

[Jon Heptonstall]

Progress slow but ongoing!

Me, to quote Magnus, I’ve started so I’ll finish. After all, I’m building historical, not contemporary.

Tim I forgot to tell you the “Sag” in your tracks looks good they look the same as my 1/48 KV

Agree fully with Lee and esp Tim.
My love of Russian armour stems from the battle against the Nazis in the last war . Certainly not in the thoughts of their leader today .

I'm continuing with my build, it's a historical build. No time for the present leader, my thoughts are with those suffering the consequences of his actions.
