The Patton Project

In So Cal AMPS we had decided to do a group build in 1/35 scale of the Pershing-Patton family of tanks and associated vehicles as the chapter entry for IPMS Nationals 2021. Even though that has come and gone, I am personally going to be carrying on with my own personal collection of those tanks.
Here are the last four of them that I have built, along with the year of completion. Some pre date the project.
Left to right, in historical chronological order:
Dragon T26E3, 1997
Dragon M26A1, 2013
Dragon M46, 2020
Italeri M47, 2021
As I complete more, I will add to the family portrait.

Thanks guys. I also have several M48s and M60s that I built in my late teens and early 20’s, but I need to build some new ones at my current skill level for the “family portrait”

Thanks Mike. If I keep up the one a year additions, I’ll have my M60 done in 2023…

Eventually I'll have all the versions of the Hornet/Super Hornet. I'd also like to do a collection of A-10's in different camos.

I plan on doing the first two schemes, MASK A-10A & Europe 1/Charcoal Lizard, plus the JAWS scheme.
