For those of you who like tanks (up to 1945)...

Did some planes: Me-109, Thunderbolt, Hien, in 1/72th scale but I mostly built tanks and monsters (Vampirella, Frankenstein, Creature from the Black Lagoon).

I am currently posting large pics from my collection at Ars and some of you might enjoy these. I'm posting on average 40-50 pics per day. Still got ~1300 to post.

No point reposting the links here, particularly as the forum software does not allow thumbnails, so here's a link to the thread.

Enjoy.

Somebody has visited the Ordnance Museum at Aberdeen Proving Ground! I drive by those hulks every day.

They're moving to Kansas or something like that in few years, in case you're planning to visit again. Might want to call ahead.

Don't judge.

Think you might like this one, jagec. There's something strangely familiar about it.

And I've added many pics and a couple of links to UHQs in my Ars thread (see OP). Still over a thousand pics left.

In the late 80's or early 90's, a used car dealer in Stockton, CA had a small US tank for sale. Don't remember which one for sure...pretty small by comparison. Maybe an early Sherman. Of course, the gun was totally non-op, but I always thought it'd be fun to drive on the freeway. Use the turret as a turn signal...it's the kind of turn signal even Ray Charles couldn't miss...

I have started buying books on the German armor of WWII. Some amazing tanks, with the King Tiger, Elefant, SturmTiger and the Jagdtiger being my faves. Read a great book by Otto Carius detailing the 501st Heavy Armored divisions battles.
