Mark, fine looking M-48, indeed! The Tamiya offering still builds up into a great replica of the -48 and you did a fantastic job with it. Getting that 35th scale bug yet? We have Mr. Madman building planes and Duke going big scale!!!!!!

Thank you Boots! Coming from you that means a lot. Mark, fine looking M-48, indeed! The Tamiya offering still builds up into a great replica of the -48 and you did a fantastic job with it. Getting that 35th scale bug yet? We have Mr. Madman building planes and Duke going big scale!!!!!! Thank you Ian! However, this is the Dragon kit. I didn't do the Tamiya one because it sits 3mm too high due to the Tamiya team measuring one that had already had the engine removed. I did not want to go through the hassle of trying to lower it AND keep all wheels touching the ground! No, no more plans to do any more Big Scale, aside from a commission build. I can't even display my small scale armor anymore due to lack of space; where would I put any more Big Scale tanks? I'm already having a hard time finding a place to keep this beast! Tommy, Pete, Marco and Porco, thank you very much. I can only hope my work is worthy enough for all those incredible Masters.

Had it in my head you were battling the Tamiya version. The Dragon kit looks great too, then!!!!!

No worries Ian! I was offered the Tamiya version first, but when I heard I had to lower it; well that was all I needed to hear to go find a different company's kit.
Thanks again for the compliment!
