like the weathering. ya got a overall shot of the whole thing?

[kaptain Jack]

Here you go

[BiLLy bOb]

wow, the weathering job looks like it fell right outta December 1944!

Quite the collection you have there. I'm sure you need some LARGE 50cc airplanes and possibly a motorcycle? those would be much easier to ship overseas... hahaha Seriously, you have a very nice collection.

Very realistic weathering on the T34/85. Have you ever done any of the tank battling with any of the collection? Lots of fun!!

Thanks,Wayne. Bob sorry for late reply,I haven"t noticed your posting. The T34 is Heng long, but I gutted it and put a new system: SLU, it is as good if not better then Tamiya,with larger speaker, engine revs almost as if you have a real one in your room.

Taigen is coming out with the perfect starter tank for any T34 or SU project. It'll have a metal lower hull, metal roadwheels, metal idler and sprockets as well as metal tracks.

AND, the proper set up in the gearbox area with black metal gears.

Looks like I'll be investing in 2 of them!

wow jack..as always fantastic work...you sure i can,t drop off my tank to you to weather it like that...it would look cool like that loaded on my lowboy as a relic...

[kaptain Jack]

Nice,did you do any mods? I have installed SLU in mine for better sound and controls.

[kaptain Jack]

Dwayne, I'll teach you how to weather,so you can do it yourself. Just come over one weekend.

Check out Matotoys 1/16 all metal tanks and accessories. Several models and uses , if you choose to, the Heng Long internals. They also have a lot of accessories. It is at least worth a look-see at about $600.00 for all metal tank with motors and gearbox with brass gears minus electronics is to me more reasonable than a Tamiya kit.
