Thumper got its first run today, at the San Diego event. The camouflage works for this field, don’t you think?

Bob, Thumper looks great in the wild, but don't take her down main street!!!

29/4/1994 Near Tuzla, Bosnia. A lone Leopard 1 is on the prowl looking for Bosnian T55s of the Serbian Šekovići brigade.

Nice! I've always wanted to do a UN white tank. Bosnia looks like Scotland...

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.

My new M36B1

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

I tried out ChatGPT on two of my tanks:

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

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

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!!!

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.

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

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.

[rb67mustang]

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!!!!
