                        I used to love anything from the skies of WW2 or any modern thing with rotors, but upon seeing the M2A2 the same thing hppaned.

                        There is no name quit able to fit us. Nothing lofty enough to describe a box of B-17's at 25,000 feet rutting through fierce flack like a linebacker, nor any way to make a word fit a Mustang clawing around to find the tail of the enemy, the stangs Merlin engine screaming its sweet song. Not a word to add up the shreak of a diving Corsair, it's 13 foot prop tips breaking the sound barrier as its 6 .50 cals send steel hornets to shred the wings of an unfortunant pilots plane away.....

                        It would be interesting to see which forum has more defectors, Armor or Aircraft. Hehehe. We call the Armor Forum the Dark Side, what does the Aircraft Forum refer to themselves as?

                        i think we can put it on Winston Churchill... even tho' he was Secretary of The Navy
                        during WW1, he was the only fellow around at the time who thought an armored treaded vehicle mite come in handy on the battlefield... & the Mk. 1 was born...

                        spector you are very right. i feel like i am a better modeler because of the addition of the darkside to my builds. maybe the better comment would be a more all around builder. and you are right there are so many different things you can do with armor.

                        I think armor is so popular because of the potential for dioramas with the hobby , with airplanes unless it is on the ground in one form or the other ( crashed , fueling up or loading ordinance) the dio potential is pretty limited , whereas armour or lightskins you can have actual situations of combat or rest dioramas , combat in aircraft would be very difficult to simulate although I have seen it done and done pretty darn well mind you ! I do have a soft spot for the HIND helicopter here and plan on doing one soon ( it will be on the ground of course ) Thats just my opinion , however you can't win a war by ground or air forces alone , so they are both very cool to model ! PS plus planes are huge if you want detail, most of us have limited shelf space so 1/72 or1/35 armor is much more appealing shelfwise !

                        Armor is dirty, filthy, greasy, heavy, stinky, exhausting stuff. Males, young and old, are fascinated by it... as are so are women and girls once they figure out it's sooo much fun! You can camp by it, sleep on it and it keeps schrapnel from entering your skull.

                        Who could ask for more out of life?? Welcome back!

                        Scream as much and as loud as you canEvil [}:)]!! Resistance is futileEvil [}:)]!! Nobody can resist the vortex drawing force of the darksideBig Smile [:D]. Sooner or later, your skin will turn desert yellow with strips of red brown and dark green, and your eyes will turn green into olive drab. You won't hear the high pitch noise of jet engines in your dreams, replaceing that will be the vibration sound of diseal or gasoline engine. Your navel blue & grey paints all dry up soon. Worse, you will soon start to like mud, dust, oil and dirtShock [:O].

                        Well, on the bright side, you will learn Donald Sunderland in US Army tank uniform is The Good, Robert Shaw in SS tank uniform is The Bad and Tom Cruise in a F-14 jet uniform is The IdiotBig Smile [:D]
