"when i grow up i want to be just like you"

I just wanna be his neighbour...

Has he said just waht he's building yet - or have I missed it?

I dont think so Charlie, if he has i missed it too.... initially I guessed a replica D50 but it has changed so much since then..... what ever it is, it looks awesome

As Colin said in his initial post " Nothing specific...Just a tank of some description"

Rick, are you sure mate? Grown ups have to act responsible etc etc.
I never want to grow up. Before you know it the wife takes your toys away. :D :D :D

i was thinking m3 stuart ? but not to worry at this rate it won't be long before the thing is finished and we'll know for sure.

i promise not to become old and boring too soon and besides i've always thought that "you're only as old as the woman you feel" :D

rick

A bit closer

Can't give too much away :nono:
Colin

tiger :giveup

Looks like a mini tiger...

Easo

A carrier would also be a good platform for some of the vicker's line of light tanks...

A bit of progress

Well done Rick and Easo'

I like the rollers for the azimuth traverse, but how will you be securing the turret to the hull in order to allow the necessary rotation but not letting it fall off?

What are the plans for the main armament? Just in place? Simulated recoil? Shooting tennis balls? :)

Regards Easo

I got a bit done but it's bloody hot here.

Yes Easo' it will be shooting tennis balls :)

Colin. F :thup2: :drunk:king great. Can't wait to see it painted.

Badass! Should put on turret on the frankencarrier...hmmm...

mint ! i love it !!!! are you going to put mok zimmerit on her too ?

You won't want to let them take it when your done... Do you get first dibs when they are done with it?

Easo

Well it's just about there. I will have to do a Youtube of it driving after completion. I will be sorry to see it go but at least they will have a lot of fun with it.
Colin.

Great work Colin. Is this going to be used for airsoft or paintball?

it does look really good but a thought just struck me. what if someone pulls this out from a hedge in 50 years time and mistakes it for some sort of original war time modification :D

rick

Hedge find of the future?
 

Then I would think they would marvel at what sort of thinking was behind the production of a WW2 tennis ball gun!

It's Bob Semple meets General Stuart !

.
 

I missed that detail, too...

:) You have to admit, this is not as ugly as a Bob Semple. :) Hmm! Perhaps a Schofield may have been the go! Lots of style there...................................."Not"
:no4:
