    What materials do you use for the diorama buildings?
    SNAFU is:
    Situation Normal, All F***** Up
    Similarly, FUBAR:
    F***** Up Beyond All Repair (or similar)

    WIP I take usually as
    Work In Progress

    Urban Dictionary can help with definitions although I'd say it's NSFW at times (Not Safe For Work).

    The StuGIII is an excellent all terrain performer, it just beat the KT in some thicker vegetation.
    Just watch where the outer road wheels are rolling.
    Best to reglue them, it seems to be a PzIII chassis design issue and the fact that they are only press fitted.

    I like that little tank.

    My son has rolled, rammed, trapped, spun and in short "rained havoc" upon the Sherman. It has survived and seen numerous repairs. Still in the game. I did adjust the speed to the lowest setting. That helps. Click image for larger version  Name:	IMG-5928.jpg Views:	0 Size:	330.7 KB ID:	349477

    ... Today I tried to find a scale transporter for the tanks.
    Found a friendly trucker that would let me try.
    It worked out fine, although it seems the scale factor isn't a perfect match.
    It wouldn't be legal anyway because the tires were not rated for the almost 140 tons of combined weight.
