I have the T-35, and both the T28 and T28 bridgelayer kitsSmile [:)]

I think I also have a metal barrel for the T28 in the box that I picked up somewhere Wink [;)]

I would really dig a T-35 group build... we might actually get enough of them for a parade!!! http://www.battlefield.ru/t35.html

Nicely done dj... in your bag of tricks, do you have anything on the grosstracktor (specificaly the Damlier Benz version) I've wanted to scratch build that for a while now and can't get past the same obligatory two photos of it or the 2 view line drawing of it in Panzer Tracts. Looking for a little something more. Even tried contacting DB to see if they may have the plans archived but no luck yet.

It would make a great eclectic subject for the multi turret build.

Seems like I missed all the fun (as usual!).
Cool looking tank (T-28). Who built it?

Domi, your scratchbuilt FCM F-1 is outrageous!
What were they thinking??
It's like the offspring of a Maus and a Karl...

Wildwilliam, I'm sure you'll do fine! Well, I've got to get myself a decent looking (ie ridiculous looking!) project...

Krona, by the way, it's a fine looking model you show us there...

Here's one I scratchbuilt a few years ago, in 1/72: the French FCM F1



Only a wooden mock-up was ever completed before Germany invaded in 1940. It was designed to attack and destroy the fortification of the Siegfried line... Big Smile [:D]

This is going to be fun! We'll need a badge indeed! Who can do that?

QUOTE: BFO guys (blinding flash of the obvious), either Krona is Max of Alanger.us or works for him.


If that is the case Rob, and this is an example of the interaction of alanger et al, than I won't do business with them nor endorse them to anyone. Quite the opposite in fact.

What is the intent Krona? regarding If you're at a loss at what to get me for christmas? I'd really like the m5 stuart. I'm sure with all the new friends you've made here you can come up with something. But based upon your responses to date. Please don't.

I don't see where any of this should have invoked the churlish responses we got. You were offered some friendly advice. Welcome to the forum.

I'd be happy to do a gb of a multi turret vehicle. I have an early stuart in mind.....

looking to add another badge to your sig?

BFO guys (blinding flash of the obvious), either Krona is Max of Alanger.us or works for him. Do a simple search of the non-archived posts he has made.

I've ordered from him before, and have recommended his site as a place to get great deals on ICM and PST kits. I did read his replies before they were deleted, and they seemed rather childish and nonsensical to me.

hehe, yeah maybe he should try out the wares he hawks Smile [:)]

I ended up ordering the t-35 just now from www.alanger.us. I have a discount with them, but they have a 30% off sale. With shipping, mine ended up being $20.15 USD.

hey, that's an amazing idea actually. After the towed gun build, I'm still at a little bit of a loss, so this might be a good thing if it actually happens Smile [:)]

heheh, looks like I missed most of this, but I'm glad others kind of jumped him for advertising.
However, if anyone IS interested in a t-28, I suggest going to alanger.us to order directy from them. THey carry the entire ICM range. Also, they are having a sale now, so if you're interested in any of this stuff.
I might end up getting that t-35, looks like a monster, and looks to come with an interior as well.

i think a good rule of thumb is:
if someone asked 'does anyone know where i can find a kit of the T-28'
then posting the link is acceptable.

if you showed us pictures of a kit you built and then said you had gotten it there,
either on your own, or in response to a question, i do not think anyone would mind.

we refer to commercial sites and enterprises quite frequently here,
but we do it in the context of our discussion of building models

posting a site selling the tank completely out of the blue is too close to advertising
for most of our tastes.

if you are trying to draw a connection between this and DJ's post
about 1:1 AFV's for sale, you are wasting your time.
it is not remotely the same thing.
most of us here complain abt the cost of aftermarket goodies.
it is not likely that we will scamper off and drop thousands on an
actual military vehicle.
it should be fairly obvious that links of that sort are posted either for humor or reference.

and if you have not worked it out yet from the other responses,
i will tell you plainly: knocking heads on this subject w/ members who have
established a reputation as excellent modelers and helpful forum contributors is not going to be well received.

you really don't have a leg to stand on, and the more you persist, the worse you make it for yourself.

I don't know if you are advertising or not here, but it looks like it.
What I do know is that you are stepping on alot of peoples toes here.
The post by renarts is not an advertisement of his own products, Its a site that he found to be fun, and thus he posted a link here. He is not trying to sell the items here.

Please do your self and everybody else a favor and delete this topic, its not doing anyone any good.

Oh and please read this http://www.finescale.com/fsm/community/forum/topic.asp?page=1&TOPIC_ID=461

Dave, it appears we have a problem here. Care to take care of it? Mike and Domi have been polite and this gent still doesn't get it.

Krona, you're kind of getting on my nerves now... Tried to be nice about it but I'm getting nowhere... Of course English is not my mother-tongue but all the same... I bet your account will be blocked sooner than later.

You're the weakest link. Good-Bye..!
