GMballistic Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Awesome Mark. What sort of speed are you expecting from this? I'm guessing it will do a scaled down full speed of the original life size tank then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool.

GMballistic Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Keep this updated when you can JEMAN. Maybe take some pics as you go through the painting stages as I'd be interested to see what you're getting up to with this thing as I'm sure some others would be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMballistic Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 The detail on those figures is great, ...why'd they have to make them looking so pi**ed off though? I mean you wouldn't necessarily want them smiling but they look really upset. Cool though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
