The PBP-So close to done it's done- Pg 4
Posted by wing_nut on Saturday, February 26, 2011 8:42 AM

I have started a new Peanut Butter Panzer project.  This one will be an Tiger I dio.  I have added some mud guards and opened the drivers and command hatches.  I iwll be using Preiser 1/144 figures which are pretty amazing considering their size.  The command hatch is cast.  Now to find a jar lid big enough for what I plan.

Marc, idon't know how to put it, your getting worse with age, I can't even consider that scale, i'd loose it or inhale it.

Good luck with your build and I'm looking forward to seeing how you complete this with out going mad.

Always a pleasure to see another PBP build! Scratch-built fenders in 1/144 definitely qualifies you in the "mad hatter" category. Big Smile
