A person really has to answer alot of there own questions before getting a tank. What are you going to use it for? How talented of a modeler are you?
Your right! Also what always seems to be missing from these discussions is TIME! Before kids I had all the time in the world to scratch build, detail, weather, etc. Not the case anymore. Now when I get time in the shop I usually stare at projects for a bit then crack a beer and watch hockey/football game to decompress. Been working on 2 projects since June.....slowly!
