Hmm.. this is going to be an interesting build thread for sure..

Just try to expand the collection a little bit.. thought a tank is definitely different enough!!

Ordered the bearing kit for this today.. 76 bearings.. LOL!!

Nice paint jobs from Paintstikker.. I am thinking about desert sand myself so I don't have to do any fancy paint job.. single color is more to my skill level.. but I might try to experiment w/ making some templates for some camouflage paint job...

Challenger 2 (British tank). I think you have seen my panther and the sherman. The other two are in the box.

Good luck with the build. Here's some tips on airbrushing/camo Testors guide. Don't forget to sign up to armorhut on yahoo groups. It's where I found answers to most my questions on tanks.
