Dragon M48A1, Elvis Tank

[stikpusher]

I’ll kick off this sub forum as well. 
This is my last US Post WWII AFV build, sort of double dipped. One part for IPMS Phoenix at the Nationals last year for our Group Build entry of Tanks in Movies, and one part for So.Cal.AMPS Patton GB of all the Patton tank Family..

Looks GREAT stikpusher. You were at the Phoenix Nationals? My wife and I attended also. The 1/16 scale dirt modified I built took a third place in large scale.

Do you remember that huge sand storm that hit everywhere that Thursday? Or was it wednesday? At any rate...the wife and I watched it from our Motel room about 150 miles North of Phoenix. It was really insane for sure.

Chromedome & Gary, thank you.

Gary, no I was working at the time of the last Nats in Phoenix so I was unable to attend. I was living and working in southern California at that time. But at least one of my builds went to Phoenix with SoCalAMPS Group Builds. I actually think that my wife was there at that time visiting her mom for that big sandstorm. We just moved to near Phoenix a few years ago. That big haboob is still the stuff of legend around these parts.

What a marvelous build Stik. Really nice rendering of the Patton. I really like the subtle weathering. It is very well done. Thanks for sharing with us.
