« Last post by Robomog on Yesterday at 07:58:05 AM »Thanks guys, I think I've come up with a compromise, more of that soon
In the mean time here's the first mockup of the launcher.
It will probably change a some point but it looks like it will work at the moment
Thanks for looking.........

Land / Re: BISON APC, Canada, 1:35, conversion
« Last post by apophenia on Yesterday at 07:47:58 AM »I remembered that I had a picture of a BISON kit on my PC. Now I've found it. I didn't take a photo of it myself, I found it and saved it. It was around the beginning of 2008. I don't know which manufacturer it is.
Interesting. But, yes, the manufacturer is a poser.
At first glance I wondered if it might be the Mouse House ASLAV APC conversion. But the kit in your photo looks like the entire upper hull was moulded in resin. Plus, the Bison add-on armour panels are in place on the nose. Hmm ...

Second reaction: "I bet babies make terrible tank crew."
30 second attention spans, fixated on boobies, poop their pants on a regular basis = basic functions of a 19 series D.A.T.
However, you may have a point as they weigh about the same as a 105mm HEAT round.
(Tangentially, I am reminded of the shoe size exchange in FARGO https://youtu.be/BouYk0Ok4g4?t=165)

Don't give the Russians ideas...
Too late, but perfect for the outta-scale builds

« Last post by Ramba on Yesterday at 02:44:58 AM »I got another Dragon USMC M1A1HA Baghdad kit painted today in the NATO camo to do another OIF vehicle. This one has the snorkel adapter fitted to be used as a heat/exhaust deflector. As you can see, the .50cal still needs painting and the M240 will be added later. Also, some touchups needed on the camo but I have been doing touchups for two days now and getting tired of working on the two M1A1's. Not looking forward to doing the weathering either as my weathering skills are zero to none.
I used the Voyager snorkel resin and PE set. The rim of the snorkel adapter came snapped off but was easily fixed.
I also painted the Skif Strela. This will be a what if with a couple UB-32 rocket pods on it. I still need to paint the rocket pods and some camo touchups but not going to worry about the camo touchups. It is as is, just a flat coat then weathering.
The UB-32 rocket pods are from Reskit.
