Hungerstrike?

I'm in silent protest.

It'll happen guys, be patient. I might have time yet to do a T34, probably in 1/35th scale. Rather do a Panther Ausf.D, but no Russian stuff in the GB yet, so....

No sooner said than done Terry. This little beauty arrived in the post yesterday, I'm making good progress with the A10 so as soon as it's done I will make a start on this one.

Looks to be a very nice kit with a lot of detail an all for £7.00 bargain.

I plan on giving this one a go too guys. I'm gathering a few bits and pieces and doing some research at the moment but I haven't got any markings in mind just yet.

Cheers

Nice one! I looked at that kit and the 1943 model, and Revell and Tamiya 1/35th scale versions.

I am wanting to do a Russian Armored Train but have had ZERO luck finding out the type used there.

 

[Airframes]

Now that would be a good one!
I've seen kits for German armoured locos and rolling stock, in 00/H0 and 1/35th scales, but haven't a clue about Russian stuff. I guess they would have been standard railway stuff...with armour!

I'm annoyed with my Stug...its being shunned.

I can find tons of Soviet Armored Train models and self propelled cars, I just cannot find exactly what kind the 49th Separate Battalion of Armored Trains used at Kursk. It's a tad on the aggravating side!

looks like this section of the build is gathering momentum!

If any vehicle is allowed, than i will start with this.

I have the old Esci kit here .

Hm, the Group Build is titled "Armour At Kursk"...

 

[Airframes]

Yes, sorry, it's for vehicles as in tanks, half-tracks etc, not aircraft.

 

[vikingBerserker]

Armored Trains qualify?

 

[Airframes]

I guess they probably do, being a land 'vehicle'. I wasn't involved in the decisions for this GB section, so I'll leave it open to the floor.

 

[B-17engineer]

Replace the fuselage with a tank and your good to go...tank with wings.

 

[T Bolt]

You mean like this Antonov A-40 ?
