No, there isn't anything like Tally Ho over here. They might have said "Weidmannsheil" before going on a mission, it translates more or less into "happy hunting". Looking forward to this one for sure  |

And so it begins. First strike to the Russians who have inflicted damage on, what was known as, the rucksack.  I ground the plastic down till it was paper thin, punched a hole and bent the lid. Contents are an old box and VMS tarp. Then I stipples Vallejo plastic putty for burnt texture. |

Cheers PorcoRosso. Got lots of ideas in mind, not sure as yet which to go for.

Thanks Paul and PorcoRosso.
You never know, I may do 2 or 3 for this GB. As long as the rules allow.

Paul's the main man. But I can't see a problem with that Tommy.

Thanks Paul and PorcoRosso. You never know, I may do 2 or 3 for this GB. As long as the rules allow. Tommy we are a simple folk here at MHO, there are no restrictions as to how many builds you wish to enter. The only unspoken rules we have, are these two: 1. The build can only be entered into one GB 2. If you have a started build, the organizer must be informed and it is his descision if it's allowed. |

Looks like the plan is changing already. The Royal model commander is too big for the cupola. Back to a Tamiya spare. 
The white is Vallejo plastic putty watered down with a bit of water. |

That can happen Tommy, maybe he was made for a Tiger . Plan B looks fine though |
