Tony stay of evil-bay, it takes your money mate. Did i mention it takes my money too? Been on there and just brought the HL Panther G to go with the Tiger, what am i going to tell the wife? I'll post pics up when i get it well, thats if i'm still here lol.

Have fun, John

 

[Guest]

Same here. Wife not too happy about it. I spend too much money on evil-bay but saying that I dont drink or smoke.

 

[Centurion3RTR]

All is good with the wife and the Panther turned up today, no sound no smoke but not much to go wrong lol. Metal Tracks and gears so thats good, just have to have a go and had some fun too. What do you lot think of the camo? I don't know weather to go for something different as i have the Tiger thats having the full works or leave it as it is and make it look used.

Lucky s**, don't like the cammo one bit John, so I think back to primer and give it the 'Cent' treatment....It's crying out for it.

Must make a start on my Tiger soon!

Please, have fun with it.

Evil bay - turns up some nice stuff, a quick working with the magic brushes will soon have that Panther looking how it should be and not a factory sprayed demo model. Look forward to seeing the finished tank John!

Thats if i can put the controller down Andy lol, i've had some right fun with it tonight. The tow cables are soft vinyl so i've been towing the Tiger around, sent the missis mad.

Have fun, John

I agree, the camo looks realy naff, it would look 100 times better with a proper paint job, looks like something out of a toy box at the moment lol. im sure you will do a good job on it.

Got to love my wife. She has seen how i've had to cut our cloth to make our ends meet since she was made redundant and today she got her money through from the company. So she's gone out of her way to buy me this....and it was a bargin too by looking at prices in the shops. She got this 1/35 Dragon King Tiger Henschel turret (Battle of the Bulge version) for £20 all in. Well chuffed as that'll go nicely with my King Tiger Porsche turret one

 

[Guest]

Very nice Allyne like the kit, and arn't wives just the best.

This one just arrived. There are a few Bf109s being built at the moment so this one will be dropped down the line! Maybe after the Ta152 of which there's no sign yet. I have a stash of four which is three more than I usually have LOL.
