that is something that could change my mind about building big scale vehicles, it is very impressive. I would need to build more/substantial shelving though.  :o

Check out the diecast vehicle market. I bet there a number of appropriate vehicles there. They can get expensive however.

Yes, Diecasts are expensive... That's a cool find, though - just remember you'll likely need a weapon covering the access ladder... there's always one or two that make it, in good Hollywood fashion.  ;)

The Scimitar/Type 87 swaps look good, too.  :thumbsup:

Japanese Type 87 hull with a Scimitar/Scorpion turret in Finnish service:
(The Type 87 is Pit Road & I presume the Scimitar is AFV Club)




He's finished the weathering now (pun intended). The backstory is that it's on a peacekeeping mission in a desert envionment.

Why, the original with the gull wings is very passable as a Rohrbach...

I figured that, but how many other people would think it had a basis in fact?
