spinnetti,
In 1/6 the "little" Hetzer hull is still 2.5 ft long! The whole tank would be 3ft long.
I think 1/12 is perfect, esp as more vehicles and figures come out. Stug will be fun to see!
My scratch built 1/6 M5 Stuart is mostly aluminum - its over 80lbs with batteries - so be careful what you wish for!
If you change your mind on the paint - I'll be here. LOL.
