Hi, folks!Smile [:)]

Since it seemed to get quite a few mentions as a good weekend build in this thread, here's a pic of my old Tamiya M-41 Walker Bulldog:



This is supposed to be that "boxtop pose," seen from the rear of the vehicle, with the turret almost in the stowed position. I know, I know, it's an American vehicle on the boxtop, but...!Tongue [:P]

It took me about 2 weeks to build, but ya'll know I'm veeeery slow, and I did use some PE and resin stuff on it.

But even with the aftermarket stuff, finishing a kit in 2 weeks for me is like a normal modeler doing it in 2 days! Wink [;)]

Ok, I take back all those evil thoughts I had about the FSM staff for teasing me. I see this article will be out in October, and can’t wait!!! They went with Sherm’s idea, but of course I sold them on it!!!Approve [^]

FSM staff, if you’re out there somewhere I think this is the best idea I have seen for a magazine; getting input from the readers about the upcoming articles. Way to go FSM!!!Big Smile [:D]

If you want a really good detail T-34, built the Dragon one and it's lots of fun.

How about something a bit smaller (lower parts count) like a kubelwagen or a jeep or a kettenrad? How about artillery? Like a 37mm PAK, or a 75mm PAK?
Just some thoughts!
