At the South Downs Show today I bought another Academy T-50 trainer. Because I liked the other one!

My wonderful partner has just bought me a late Christmas present!!  ;D  :thumbsup:  When she asked what I'd like , I said a tank would make a nice change. Any particular one I was asked to which I replied "surprise me". She did and, I am now the happy owner of a 1/72 Modelcollect P.1000 Ratte!! (Google it).  In case anyone is wondering, a serious (not life threatening)  medical issue kind of ruined our Christmas but, happily she's making a good recovery. I better get her a super, smashing birthday present this year......!

Not quite sure how I'm going to handle 1068 individual track links..........................! :blink:  :blink:

A very nice pressy mate and s sweet easy built of a 1000 ton tank 😀 👌.
I was asked yrs ago by a mate to build that in 35th scale..then he saw how much it would cost to build and how big 😳 😀
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

On a 1/72 scale model ? I know it's a big bugger, but that's taking the P  :o

As for your partner's birthday pressie, with one like that you'd better check your overdraft limits  ;)  Seriously hope she's made a full recovery  :thumbsup:

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I am still trying to work out how and what fuel tanks to hang under the wings. I do have a few Mirage F.1's available to donate a couple of tanks though.
