New winter project underway

Haven't played in some time but I am re-familiarizing myself over the holidays. Also got started on a new modeling project - 1/6 scale all-metal WW2 Tiger I from ArmorTek, a British company.  The snapshot below is one of the road wheel stacks. About 5.25" in diameter and about 3 pounds. You can also make out some of the track links in the background. A full track is 94 links and comes in at about 12 pounds. All up weight, with RC controls, smoke system, gun recoil and sound system will likely be around  250-275 pounds. I'll be working on the build over the winter with the major painting getting done come spring.

Thanks gents!  Yeah, retirement is pretty darn cool, and 55 of years of work has made for a decent one. I've wanted an ArmorTek for a long time, and now seemed like the right time 🙂

 

Hope to see some of you all on an upcoming Friday night, but holy cow, am I rusty.
