Not sure What I was thinking getting that in 1/48. Just did a Jeep in 1/48 from the Tamiya P-47 kit. Tiny. This doesn't seem too small though. Started on it today, whilst other stuff was dryng.

I don't know - 1/48 seems to be a growing scale in armour.

1/48 and 1/16... curious.
Though Gecko Models is coming out with a 1/16 PAK 40 which would be pretty cool
Thanks,
John

Yeah possibly, but I guess it's also gaining popularity because it's bigger then 1/72 with the resultant more detail, yet still a small enough model that is doesn't take up too much room.

Nice scores Lyle! The M16 MGMC is an oldie but goodie, and the Brit ambulance is a new one on me. A perfect airfield accessory. Man I hope that they upscale it into 1/35 someday...

Nice scores, Lyle. You're making Carlos proud going to the dark side. :giggles:

Airfix did one in 2022 - it's a nice kit, I have one in the stash.
