I built this one with a few changes. I swapped out some roadwheels with ones from spares bin based off of photos I found of one. I added a few grab handles, and swapped out the empty external fuel drum mounts, again from my spares bin and based off of the same photos. And I replaced the kit tow cabl...

I built this almost completely OOB, except for adding some scratch detail work to the inner faces of the TC hatch and some brass wire pins to add sag to the tracks. This is my latest completion. Tamiya's 1975 vintage classic kit of the Type 97 Chi Ha tank. Building it was exceptionally easy. The onl...

Getting close, for sure. Stik, love your setup. The tent is priceless. Well that is all done now. The tent is down, the circus has left town, and I have been breaking down my camp.
