This was a gag based on a comment by Build22 in regards to my turning towards 1/72 Armor.
They're 1/285 in a pint bottle with tow links.







I thought I'd share it with the crowd...

You'd be surprised with the detail and number of subjects there are in 1/285 scale.

Nice paint on them little kits.

All's I did was paint 'em and place 'em. I originally ordered them for my kids thinking they would be styrene but they're pewter and contain lead. So giving them to a 3 and 5 year old is out, bottle in.
As Gderue mentioned, the detail on these are amazing, smoke greandes, fuel caps, tow cables, exhausts, tools....pretty cool stuff.
