Yes Sir!

AirBrusher, You do some Bad Arse, Skill-Full Work with a Heavy Artistic Bent...
I've been admiring your work here and there in threads all through the "Tank" section of this site.

At this point I'd be happy if my blacks look Black and my reds look Red, and the paint went where it's Sposed To.

The bulk of my paint gear should show up tomorrow...
Still have plenty to do on my workbench before I Spray the First Shot.

Hey Augustus. Good to have another Texas tanker. If you want to give 'you em a good workout , bring them to the TAA battlefield at Bomberfield in Monaville. We are due out there on the 20TH of this month. And usually have battles every 3rdsSunday of the month.

Yes Sir Tgr6669,

I've had my eye on Texas Armor's site for a while...
We are planning on coming out July 20th...

Not or sure we'll be ready to Battle this month or not.
I'm still trying to work out the Kinks on the these New Tanks...

The HL Leopard 2A6 came with a Dead Radio...
I have another Radio and some extra kit coming for this tank.

And the KV1 lost its Bind with its Radio while Batting in the front Flower Beds yesterday.
As it Took Off for El Paso at Full Tilt... The ditch slowed it down just enough for me to catch up with it...
With my Five year old Cackling like a Mad Scientist...
It's surprising how much Torque these tanks deliver...
So I need to sit down and run through the ReBind procedure on this tank...

And I still haven't had a chance to hook up and test the IR systems on the two Taigen Tanks...

in in any event, we'll be there, with or without tanks...

Howdy Fellas,

Just wanted to add a Note of Thanks to Gene at Artistic (http://www.artistichobbies.com).
One small issue I had with my Taigen KV1, when I initially unpacked it, was the Lid of the Port Side Sponson Box was broken off...
After calling Gene at Artistic (800-610-4294) yesterday and letting him know what my problem was... (Your best bet)
He got a replacement in the mail to me today...

Thank You Sir!

Best Regards,

-gus

Good tip...anyone have any experience with Paasche bottles (extra cups) or 3d party bottles and caps for Paasche brushes?
