M26 pershing GB

That exact kit is on my "gotta have" list. I'll be using Tamiya's kit and Friuls. Not sure what theater, or even exact variant I'm doing yet.

Just want you guys to know that I am working on Dragon's M26 and I'll  use decals for a tank based in korea

My wheels for my m26 pershing are almost done. 

I'm jealous! I got my Tiran (in the Armor forum) in paint and went back into the Magach 6B Gal that's been waiting for a couple of months, giving in to my "modelers' ADD" big-time. I did move the box to a place closer to the bench and put the friuls together while the Cowboys lost.  It'll happen.....

I agree, the unofficial badge should reflect the "wing it" nature of this endeavor.

i have unofficially put glue to plastic on this group build and got the suspention leveled on my t-26,the only issue so far is the back engine deckand upper hull didn't want to sit together so a little persuasion and glue made them more friendly.will proceed cautiousily and of course unofficially.IMHO the badge for this build should include this builds unofficial status.happy holidays everyone and may your gifts be in scale.

I'm unofficially in. Next session at the bench will see mine started. Anyone willing to be the unofficial moderator, or do an unofficial badge? What I'm doing right now is pretty much the limits of my "computer skills".....

Works for me.. I'm flexible... Let's get rolling...!

I'm going with RBaer's idea. Anyone else?

Neu, I would say (and I welcome anyone else's input here) build whatever fits the time-frame of the Pershing/Patton family.

I haven't started yet, but I can next time I get some modelling time.

How about a start time of a couple of weeks ago and run it until June or so?

"Hollywood" tanks. Neat idea.

The "tickler" didn't raise much interest......

How about a roll call, assuming a start date in the very near future, and running for 4 to 6 months. I'd be happy to keep track of things but I am a computer neanderthal, so someone else would have to do the badge and actually host it. So far interest has centered around late/post WWII American armor in any country's service. I think maybe use M26 through M60, and if there's a desire on anyone's part, HVSS Shermans.

Thoughts?

Maybe we need a "tickler" on the "armor" forum.......

Beuller?? Beuller??.. I have a Pershing to..

So.. is this official yet ??..
