Awood, this might sound dumb. But do we get the badge now or do we get it once we are done? I noticed no one has it up yet.

Im glad you guys like the badge. Fletch - by all means if you want to post it in the first thread go ahead or if you please I have the larger one I shrunk which I think would be better. As for the finished badge... Im thinking one about two thirds the size of the one posted. Soon as I get a chance Ill post both.

As for the Tauntaun Empire... yikes.

Nick, you're in. Awood, I love that badge!!!! I'm a huge StarWars fan too. I wanted to have a Darth Vader themed badge anyway so if no one objects or comes up with a better one... That's the one we'll go with.
A tauntaun Empire? Now there's a scary thought!

Awood: Do you mind if I put the big badge at the begining of the topic?

Fletch, I was playing arond with ideas for a badge for this... one involved an airplane with a tank turrent mounted on the fuselage and treads for a landing gear Big Smile [:D]
but what do you think about this one


I guess it still needs to be shrunk some, and Id probably have to enlarge the writing but you still get the general idea...

ya Im dont think I'll care too much for the raised panel lines.

If you want to get a first armor model in 1/35, dont go with dragon the indy tracks are quite difficult for a first time. well, their newer stuff like the 3 in 1 kits have the magic tracks so you could go with those. But if you want build free of difficulty, Tamiya is the way to go. Rubber band tracks dont really bother me. For 1/72, go with the Dragon armor pro series, they are incredible!
