Looks great with camo! I like the way you made the drivers hatches functional - no easy task to cut those out!

Very nice details!

Bob

Default 1/16 Luchs - Classy Hobby / 35rctank

It's available now if you want to convert the Classy Hobby static kit but you'll need to lobby 35rctank to offer another round of Luchs kits. I'm currently on their mailing list for the 38(t) kit & told S.K. I'll also buy the Luchs if he will reissue this year.

Looks great Larry, The weathering and camo look great in the outside shots. Thanks for sharing this. It inspires me to get going on mine. How is the sound with TCB?

HI, Bob

The Benedini sound unit works superb with TCB. I downloaded Panzer III's sound file which is optimized for TCB instead of Luchs's. everything is super!

go and get it. definitely worth the money, it might be the most affordable 1/6 all metal tank, so far.

Larry, you need to post that one of your daughter from yesterday. She's so cute in her black overseas cap.

I'm serious about my son now wanting his own uniform so he can come over & play tanks. My only concern is he'll now start asking Baba for a big tank like your's once he sees his Sherman alongside the Luchs.

ha ! thanks!

I still need to adjust Sabertooth's setting for better output & performance. I went way too cautious and limited power output to 2* 10A.

I definitely will shoot some on the run footages next time.
