I forget if your KV-2 is a battler! Does that monster roll?

Mines still waiting for the SLU :P

going to eventually make it a battle tank right now still HL electronics i was debating on making it recoil i molded the barrel into the mantlet i have two peices of styrene fitted around the original barrel as spacers to centre the larger barrel so it still fires bb right now also

Thanks Jim it's getting there, have more to do

RE: My Prototype KV-2
 
I have the hatch here for my KV-2, I just never got around to installing it... it'd only be for cosmetics, do you already have a hatch of your own? I don't really need mine :P

If you can manage to fit a speaker box in the front, you'll get excellent sound out of a KV. I have a Tamiya standard speaker and it's amazingly crisp and LOUD with the Clark.

Also, Cobra Commander logo, nice ;)

RE: My Prototype KV-2

She's a beauty.

That's some seriously impressive lettering, especially considering it's hand painted.

Are the MGs independent or do they fire together?
