      The more screws it takes to reassemble a tank, the more likely it is you left something out!

        Really looks great with the "search light" added. Brings out that "Cold War" look and feel of the M60 even more.

              • Nice day in the PNW👏🏻

                I have a 1/10 crawler course inspired by the show “The Last of us” so old blown up buildings. I add a building a year. They stay out all year , real concrete and cedar.
                not perfect scale, but good for some fun 1/16 scale pics

                • It been a while since I drove this tank, but now that the weather is sunny I decided to bring my "desert" themed T34 out of storage and get some practice driving and firing time in.

                    • Field day today, took the Sherman X and KV-2 (M) out for a run. Very hot and very dusty, but that's how desert ops are.

                      I like taking pics from either zoomed-in "helicopter" angles, or from down low, looking up at the tanks. Helps for a realistic feel of the scale of the tanks if they were life-size.

                              • Decided since I now have a Merkava, Shot Kal and Megach 6B that I no longer needed my M51 and was going to lighten my IDF theme tanks a little.

                                So I converted my Tamiya M51 to a late version M4 "EZ8" using a DKLM T26 76mm turret I had been using on one of my HL M4s. While I was at it I dumped my worn out Tamiya tracks and added a new pair of IMPACT "rubber" padded T84 tracks. I also replaced the old Tamiya DMD 7 with a new HL 7.1. Needles to say the tank drives a lot better. The HL 7.1 in combination with the Tamiya gearboxes equals one super smooth handling tank.

                                Slapped on some new paint and light weathering and presto a late model Tamiya "EZ8" is born. The name "War Pony" is a homage to the HL M4 that the turret was donated from.

                                • No clue why my four photos in post Our new Thread! disappeared. Maybe unlucky 13? I'm not even able to edit the post to add them back in.

                                  Anyway. here's trying again. Four little Panzers, all in a row:

                                    Edit: Confuseder and confuseder! The 1313 photos show up on an iPad, but not on an iPhone or PC. Okay, I'll shut up now.
