Post Your Pictures: RC Tank Gallery

[rb67mustang]

First time messing around with ChatGPT. Asked for a Mad Max style. Not the same as running them, and taking proper photos. But a bit of fun.

And the original.

OMG!!!!! Meter Rat!!!!! That Tiger is even more brutal than the original!!!!!!!!!!!! LOLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All the spikes make me think of the M4 Shermans that were used by the US Marines in the PTO during WW-II. They had nails welded all over the turrets and hatches to keep the Japs off of the tanks. I'm willing to bet quite a few were shish kabobbed on those nails!!!

I initially had only 1 static M8 Andy's HQ armor car. I wanted it to be RC. I handed it to my buddy Carlos and asked him to convert it into RC for me. It was too fragile for him to do it. So he decided to print one out, installed the RC set and gave it to me. Such a great pal. Now I have 2 M8 armor cars.

OMG!!! David, that's an amazing RC 3DP M8 Greyhound!!! Are the tire/wheels 3DP as well, or what and where did Carlos get them??? That's what I want for my M8. Yes, the kit is very fragile, but I'll be extra careful with it when I get it running not to crash into anything!!! It's great to have talented friends who can help us out, isn't it?

Great build, David!!! This must be Andy's Hobby HQ's M8 Greyhound. I love this kit, and I have two of them. One of them is being converted to a six wheel drive RC vehicle. Here's an image of the almost finished frame with the differentials.I hope to get back to work on it after my Tongde M24 is finished.

Thanks Richard, for liking my M8's almost finished 6 wheel drive frame.

Thanks, Bob for liking my 6 wheel drive frame for AHHQ 1/16 M8 Greyhound, I appreciate it!!!

BTW, Andy's Hobby HQ is having a sale that ends today. His 1/16 scale WW-II US Tanks/TD's are reduced, as well as the 1/16 M8 Greyhound which is selling for $69.99. Here's a link to the sale; https://andyshhq.com/?utm_campaign=n...4cc57ac2beca37

Here's a couple of image of the M8 mocked up with the differentials, I started on the frame after these images. I have a lot of time into this conversion. Note the incorrect tire/wheel combo; it's not what I wanted, but it is what it is, as they say!!! Due to the tire/wheel combo, this M8 most likely will not have the fenders, which is something else I'm not too happy about!!!!

And one more...my T-35 in Red Square.

Can't resist another one! Heng Long Pz IV/F2.


The original. I've long since removed the winter tracks. They are completely unsuitable in grass, leaves, or anything that is liable to be caught in them.

Here's a couple videos of my 1/6 21st Century Toys M5 Stuart. I put a lot of time into it, from adding ball rearing to the road wheels, and lots of modifications to take it out of the Childs Toy Zone to the Adults Full Function RC Tank Zone. It also has a 360 Turret, an Airsoft Cannon, servo elevation, and recoil. I still have a few minor details I'd like to upgrade, but I don't want to put a lot of money into it. East Coast Armory has highly detailed Head Lights, Siren, and the Turret Light, but the cost on those items is more than I want to spend. Yes, they look great, but they're fragile. Anyway, it's a far cry from what it was!!!

A couple of these videos are long, so speed up the video, or scroll through and watch parts of the video. Oh, I have a what if modification I could do on an extra M5 I have, I think you'll like that one!!!

Another...these pics are what our inner child's eye sees when we look at our tanks, right?

[DavidN]

Almost done! Waiting for my friend to return from vacation to print for me some riders.

[SoCalBobS]

Uh oh, another rabbit hole to dive into...

I tried out ChatGPT on two of my tanks:

My new M36B1

[tdriver113]

I'm about 70 percent along on my M113 ACAV so I took a few outdoor photos to check color choice and details. I also did a little detailing of the crew compartment and body using parts from the Andy's Hobby M113A1 kit.

Here's one without the invisible paint.
