Anarchist Empire antarctic cruiser

[loupgarou]

I remembered having an ancient Revell M-56 1/40 kit stored away since 20 or 30 years, without box.

With its wide tracks it seemed appropriate for an antarctic fighting vehicle, HEAVILY scale-o-ramed.
Parts were still sealed in heir plastic bag.


And most are still on their sprues.


It will help defend the antarctic unobtanium mines for their legitimate owner^(*) (the Anarchist Empire) from being robbed by the henchmen of the infamous Zenrat Industries. 

(*) Any suggestion that the poker game in which the mines were won had been rigged are completely unfounded, of course.

Lou this is a great addition to this GB ..a Scorpion is just something ya don't see anyway and even less in this scale .
You just keep ya eyes open for the forces of Zenrat Industries

Anarchist Empire sounds like an interesting idea

How could Anarchists even have an empire? Wouldn't they be too busy fighting amongst themselves?

[buzzbomb]

Thats the way, dig out old stuff, like seeing how they end up after a bit of TLC during a Group build

WOMAN: No one lives there.

ARTHUR: Then who is your lord?

WOMAN: We don't have a lord.

ARTHUR: What?

DENNIS: I told you. We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week,...

ARTHUR: Yes.

DENNIS: ...but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting...

ARTHUR: Yes, I see.

DENNIS: ...by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,...

ARTHUR: Be quiet!

DENNIS: ...but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more major--

That's zenrat not Zenrat.  I abhor capitalism...

I'm glad I already had The BOOK out for someone else 

Oddly enough I was having a conversation about the Anarchist "Replublic of Catalonia" in the Spanish Civil War yesterday down the pub. That and their presence in Paris in the early 1900's are both fascinating subjects to study.

Where do Libertarians fit in this?

[frank2056]

In the Libertary, with all the Ayn Rand books.

No problem at all, with ME as absolute boss! 
In the meantime, work has started, obviously the engines have been moved to the rear, so I needed to separate mudguards from the motor hood, then decided it was too long, and am building another  - shorter - part. Main armament is being readied, and the build has already attracted interest by various species of penguins.

The crowd is very funny 😜 .

Love the penguins Lou 😆 🤣

Advancing with my build. Now I have to decide if I can fit a smaller turret in front of the main one. Excess firepower is always useful.



And I decided to add an ore carrier to my scenario, an heavy semi-trailer with a tracked (of course) motor unit. Now I have to build the skis for the trailer.
