Thanks Tacobuff and Jacob! Smile [:)]

It was airbrushed with really bad silly putty for masking. As for the turret basket I have no Idea what that is.

Bravo on your first tank!! ditto on the camo (airbrushed, or brushbrushed?)

you made a wonky kit into a real gem. Good job on the sag of the tracks. My only question is...Where's the turret basket?!?! you've got the top/lids, but no basket...

well at least you're still playing, cause otherwise... your actions would be criminal!

I had a teacher that I couldn't stand and inst music class was all I could stand of her... and also all I ever got to play was some damn triangle or a wood block

but next year(which starts tomorrow for me) I'm taking a whole class each day for a semester devoted to percussion so that'll be good.

HUZZAH!! the navy part of our junior forces is completed!

I can play: Kiss me Deadly, she has a girlfriend now (reel big fish) Keasby nights (streetlight manifesto) dopeman (less than jake) (i'm in a ska band) the Liberty bell march (the Monty python theme by sousa), and just about everything any high school band can play.

I guess I'm kinda cheating since I've been playing for close to seven years.

Are you guys in your school bands?

oh sorry guys I'm the Drum MAJOR.

In marching band the Drum Major is that uber band geek standing infront of the entire band wavin' his arms around to keep time.

It just so happens that that band geek is me! I'm actually a Trumpet player (a far superior instrument if you ask me).

but yes, i can play drums too, just not as well as i can toot my own horn, LOL.
