HWR MKII

Give me one ill build it. Its only worth alot to those who know what it is. Either way though ill build it. Johns stuff is limited release too yeti build it. And his stuff is way better than tanmens

The fire valk actually looks BETTER in that chrome finish. I like it. Ever built the wave 1/72 vinyl kit of it?

I was fine with it go ahead and repost it if you like. I even entertained the idea of doing a web comic with these guys.

Finished camo coating the leopard 2 and am now working on a couple 1/35 patlabor Ingram 98s until i can get some run and fun time this weekend with it.

I just think its funny that a package can get into the UK in 7 days to me where its taken longer than that here in the US. I could have taken leave and driven to you to pick it up in less time. athe US postal service really needs to pick up the pace. Heck my Leopard made it from the UK to here in 4 days. I know its not your fault John just not enjoying the us postal service lately. One of my patlabor ingrams came in a mushed box.

Luke i will have the money ready to send soon. I cant wait to see the test flights of my airframe

I still havnt got mine yet

If anyone needs assistance with construction PM me please.

Nope im actually closer to john now. Im back in the US in Utah.

Im still waiting on mine

BINGO! The other one was 1/16 scale this one is 1/6. The hull is about 5 feet long the whole model is 6 feet long including barrel and it weighs in at around 165-170 pounds. These things are the ultimate in RC tanking.

Actually i dont think ill be getting the Panther. Im burnt out on WW2 german armor. Modern is more of a challenge and i noticed catches the eye better since its so rarely seen. I have the ONLY 1/6 Leopard 2 in Utah let alone the entire US. There are a suprising number of tigers and panthers running around with a smattering of other variants. BTW heres some pics of the Girl as she is. I had to fill some cracks and sink marks in the fiberglass which necessitated a total repaint. I have base coated it in Nato green now and will be applying the black and brown as soon as my fine airbrush gets here.

YES! Today is a good day. Not only did i get my 1/6 leo, the tomahawk is going to ship as well

Really nice job. Clean work too.

I think its on Decal hold like everyone elses.

you can get it here. http://www.lanworldinc.com/Model.htm and it cost less than the Tamiya kits. It is made to be static but is easily converted to RC. I have 7 1/16 scale 1 1/9 scale and 2 1/6 scale now. I think i have reached the tank limit unless i sell some.

I think i will let the pics speak for themselves.

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD! I think i just wet myself. Luke i hope you are retrofitting yours to meet this kind of flight control defelction.

Im not concerned about rivet patterns or line depth. More about the sharkskin texture on the plastic and the unopened gun bays. I have the kit. Overall it is quite good. Dragon/DML hasnt done aircraft in a while so it is actually understandable that there are issues. Good news is that with some 800 and 1000 grit sand paper you can eliminate the texture and this in turn also lightens the depth of the lines.

It was about 600 bucks to ship since i had to pay in UK pounds. BTW i responded to your email about the parts and such

Not yet. It leaves the UK tomorrow via Airfreight.

Nice little VF you have there. I dont prefer to work on the large scale stuff all the time but it does make room for more variety and detail. Also if i can get the pics right i can play a game of "real or model"

The tracks wont be clean for long after i get it. If anything i may get some blueing fluid like what gunsmiths use and treat the ends to get them looking more like the real thing. BUT this all depends on if dirt sticks to them like it does on the real thing.

sorry for not replying sooner luke my other RC wonder weapon just got completed. as far as the details go i wouldnt change a thing.

Well the BIG Leopard is finally finished and ready to be sent to me. Here are some teasre pics. I will definitely take more closeup ones when it gets to me in a couple weeks.
