My next trick is going to be the Leopard II Revolution I, from Tiger Models  . I hope to have this one done for On-Track  , which is in 7 weeks time  . I intend to do a different paint scheme as to that in which you can see the kit, not too sure yet but it's early days. Possibly a three tone NATO or three tone Afghanistan desert colour scheme.  Kick off tomorrow |

Watcha Carl . This kit was released I believe last year, I picked it up in Belgium in October . The Leopard II Revolution II is also available now from the same company |

Guy, Pete welcome dudes . Carl that is the Revolution II fella, it has the longer main gun and more protection sensors on the turret And possibly one or two other additions over the Revolution I . |

Are they just concept or developmental tanks?

Not to sure Pete. From what I have found, Indonesia and Poland are interested. Indonesia even has a similar if not the same version already. I reckon our Leopard expert Paul can shed more light on this . |

Watcha John, all I can say is till now all is good . Even the fully functional 3 part track links are cool, they might be a tad fiddly, but in combi with fully functional suspension it worth the fuss . These should look great on un-even ground .   As already said, time consuming but worth the effort. 30 Links in 45 mins   More pics when the tracks are done . |
