    It only takes one person complaining that their feelings were offended and poof you material is gone, except if its footage from a video game.
    Wow...that's really over the top. WTH is going on with YouTube? Just created an account on Rumble. I know YouTube has all the people now, but it seems like they just keep banning more and more content everyday.

    • Stopped by JVM3Dconcepts with my Megach 6B (M60). They wanted to use it for photos with their new 1/16 desert village structures they are making for the LA Tank club.

      This is their medium size structure 😮😮! And these are reasonable priced.

      • Clever idea to have desert oriented structures. They'll fit many eras and are a great fit for our Southern California environment.
        The more screws it takes to reassemble a tank, the more likely it is you left something out!

                    • My Torro T34/85 as of now. It can only battle with our other tanks in the shade or indoor due to its IR receiver. A member in our SoCal RC tank club has found a way to install the LegoDEI receiver onto this board. The future is a bit brighter for this tank to join the outdoor event.

                          • Not a tank, but I thought we could use a little diversion. My version of a Viet Nam M54 Gun Truck. First pic of my progress so far, lot's more to do.

                            You can do a lot with an WPL truck and a little imagination.

                                      You’ve made a good job of this. Definitely need to order a couple of recoils from Rich.

                                      • Hello! New here but and old modeler from way back. I recently purchased a HL Sherman and Tiger 1 for me and my grandson to play with, Dirtied his Sherman up a bit and he loves it. He's 6 but didn't take him long to figure it out. I'm currently weather up my all DAK Tiger and noticed some of you have spare tracks mounted on your tanks, Where are you getting the spare track links at?? I'd like to add some to the turret sides.

                                        • Toucan Hobby is an online hobby distributor of Heng Long. They sell a full set of Tiger 1 plastic tracks for ~$13. Make sure you select the ones that say US Stock.

                                          Specification: Brand: Henglong Item Condition: New Scale: 1/16 Material: Plastic Suitable For: Henglong 1/16 3818 Tiger I, 3819 Panther RC Tank Model ID: HL-3818-3819-PLASTICTRACKS The Package Includes: 1 Pair Plastic Tracks If you have any query or are not sure whether it is correct item that you want, pls feel free t


                                          FYI, Sherman tanks applied spare track links on their hulls too. I'm sure your grandson would want his also!
                                          The more screws it takes to reassemble a tank, the more likely it is you left something out!
