Unlike me, who is muddying the bejeezus out of a Merkava IV. :wacko:
It's definitely a mood thing with me..or a feeling thing and for some reason I feel like this build wouldn't look good so the mood isn't there 🙃
Right now I'm also playing with the Tiger from that dio I'm slowly working on ..the Tigers turret is history..never quite liked it..I should have some pics of that up tomorrow as well as this one.
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

OK honesty time..I said I was going to be working on this today and did I ? ..nope .
Didn't even touch it until 15mins ago ..been working all day at the camp and tomorrow off to the hospital for a couple of scans ..heart and lungs.
And Friday???..nope..got a clutch to change on a Toyota Hiace van.
Hopefully the weekend will be better but ill at least throw some progress pics up tomorrow.

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

I like this pic because the open hatch and the shovel give it some human scale.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

This is why I prefer to stick at least one figure on or in most models I build. Like here, for example:

It looks so cool! I hadn't realised that KFOR has all that heavy firepower.

I was wondering about its role on the battlefield. Apparently, MGS goes with a mechanized infantry company, or even platoon. I suppose it works well in relatively open terrain. Perhaps less so where I live, when trees prevent you from seeing very far.

Thanks ya matey  ;D
You'd be very surprised what can be seen with optics these days ...ive had the pleasure of looking thru the commanders site on a Challenger 1 during the Gulf War and that was damn impressive..I could easily see 4 kms with it ..the thermal site was amazing then..by today's standards it's stone age tech.trees are good but the slightest amount of heat can be seen at amazing ranges now and in any weather.
Just look at what the high flying drones can see these days...it's pretty damn cool 😎 😀
