on her,thats the real good thing with German tanks ,just so so meany color camo ,to pick from,


loving it,

Ta Moni, this has taken its toll on my poor hands and fingers, all the scratches and wear are done by hand-wanted to show scuffs and scratches instead of just doing some chipping.

No it uses 2x 380 motors, full charge takes 6 hours approx giving a run life of around an hour or more, depending on what you have on, smoke, sound, firing and running it at full pelt.

Cool, I used to race buggies, back in the day, using ni-cads (£30 a set for good ones) we could squeeze a 5 minute race!


Nice paint job, by the way!

Are the days of yore...I used to do RC boats and always remember folk not taking into account the water when running. On dry land the prop would go like hell even with a low charge, in the water it just slowed and stopped.


Thank you John, pleased you like it.

UPDATE:


Rear panel, filters painted and then attached, made braided pipes, all painted and weathered, also did some wear to the flag and pennant.


As you can see, there is still a lot to do.

This is coming along in leaps and bounds Si.


Really like the way the paintwork and weathering are coming together.


I especially like the rusted effects.

UPDATE:


Lower hull painted, all road wheels painted, tracks painted, accessories painted and metal gear boxes fitted. Just need weathering and I can start to assemble.

They took some doing, I made a paint mask but it didn't work, in the end it was spray and then scrape and clean...a lot of work.
