What do you mean 'People's car FTW'?

Have you:
A: forgotten it's existance
B: Missed it completely
C: Just trod on a point bit of the scale replica of it
There are no good kits, bad kits or grail kits, just kitbash fodder.

More correctly, its "For teh win", but lets not split hairs :)

Tough choice! Sovietskaya Germania or the Farrier with its outstanding camo?
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Very tough choice!! I have narrowed it down to what I consider to be the 2 best of a very excellent selection of entries. However, I think that both deserve the top spot it is that difficult to split them

5 minuters later - Well, for better or worse, my choice is made. A decision that was difficult as the funal 2 were seperated by the thickness of a thin bit of paper!!! Still, many congratulation to all who took part, some superb builds on display. the modellng ta\lent on this site never ceases to amaze me.
