Title: Next IDF "What If"
Post by: Mark Aldrich on January 18, 2013, 07:41:47 AM

Was actually going to clean and paint a Citadel Finecast Arjac Rocfist figure but it was so riddled with pin holes I pulled out this baby to do.  Called Tamiya and have two F sprues (accessories) enroute.  Changing the T66 track to Dragon DS T80 and that should about do it.  I might add a FN MAG or .30 Cal.

I don't think I've actually seen anyone build that kit. I believe it has some inaccuracies, not sure what they are but I think it has something to do with the barrel? Not sure.

Yes, I believe it is to do with the barrel length.  I'm sure I've seen an article which says it's a bit on the short side.  The kit itself is not that bad otherwise and I use it as the basis for my heavy SPAAG.

Love the double-barrels, Mr Aldrich! Sure looks every bit the business!

I spy with my little eye.... the M40, the rear 1/3 of an M113 and an M42 Duster turret. Awesome!
