Remember I said that I had plans for the Merkava....well, first step, changing the shape of the back plate. The front section is wrong, as you'll see in the next shot.
I thought of the armour from Band of Brothers, Saving Private Ryan, and Fury (?) and thought of a tank that has never been built for a movie......

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Now, when I made the Stug 111 from B of B, I thought they also made a Pz 111, but I was wrong!
They made two Stugs. One without side armour, and one with.....so, what to do with the second six wheel M-41 tank?

T-34/Tiger from Band of Brothers, minus turret. Kindá looks like a sports car, don't it!

OK, back with the Mekava conversion. Now, the front lower plate has been changed slightly by pushing the angle up a tad, and cutting the top plate off and pushing it in, over the forward wheel assembly.
Now I'm ready for the wheels.

As you can see from the fuselage roundel, 1. it;s too small and 2. the fuselage stripes are too far forward. By the kit box, one yellow stripe goes through the tailplane........
They are being 're-done'.

The plants are agabi, or is that ogabi......never sure! They grow on Central America up to Texas, New Mexico, Colorado.....anywhere it's hot and dry! We have a couple a hundred plants in our yard, and the new plants come through the main plants'stem.
They are the easiest plant to grow....work out where to plant it, dig a hole/ trench, cut off stem, put in hole, a bit of potting soil, hose, and the most important bit........have a beer!
