NEW TIGER 1 KNOCKED OUT.
This is a rework of a knocked out Tiger 1 that we use at home and away events to house a sound system for battlefield background sounds, what we wanted is the ability to also smoke. Now, the first idea was to use a smoke machine running of a battery pack and on/off switch...problem, the chances...- eddiesolo

WALKING GUN PLATFORM.
I have put this in this section as it is futuristic but I suppose it could also go in the military section. This is fairly large and I wanted it go with my 1/16 RC tanks as something a bit different. It started out as a toy and I scrapped some of the top parts, a lot of kitbashing, measuring...- eddiesolo

Chuffing cat :(
Well, my RC range safety boat will never see water...well, not by me. As it is large we moved some things from the side of the stairs and had it on a coffer under a cover. I heard Jo telling him to get off followed by lots of 'OH NO!'. He had jumped all over the top, broken masts, lighting... -

1/12 SCALE RC RANGE SAFETY BOAT.
This is my latest edition in water craft. I bought this off a club member, and I am so pleased I did. She is a fibreglass hull and top, twin stainless steel shafts and brass screws, twin rudders and her design is as a pilot boat or in this case a range safety boat. She has full working lights...- eddiesolo

1/16 RC M19 MMGC
Hi guys. This is my latest RC tank. It started out as a 1/16 RC Walker Bulldog but as the M19 is a Chaffee chassis the Bulldog is a close second. The top is scratch made and the turret turns but the Bofors are manual in elevation, she runs on 2.4 Ghz.- eddiesolo

RC MODEL OF A ARAB DHOW.
This is my Arab Dhow. She is plank on frame and is RC. I have kept her tidy as she is made from various soft and hard woods and looks too good for me to rust :D Besides, rust doesn't rust...damn.

ANOTHER SUNKEN U-BOAT.
Thanks to Ron, I got his Revell U-99 model and did what I always tend to do with these kits...yep, make it a wreck. I find this kind of modelling relaxing as it is so easy to do and mistakes or blemishes are hidden away. The boat was cleaned and then some slight damage added to hull...- eddiesolo
