Some really interesting stuff in there Jeff, and not just for this thing- thanks for the link. Also intersting is the fact that the fin sitting over the rear rortor on the model does not seem to appear in any of "real-life" images either here or elsewhere on the web. P

Made my way to the LHS yesterday and came away finally having acquired a Panther. Anybody have any experience with the Bronco workable tracks? I'm usually a Friul fiend, but the Bronc stuff looks interesting.

Different tank, same Problem... Are there spare tracks for the Ko-Gata [originally Renault FT-17] The original ones seem to be made from rubber or something. Hrmz.

Well, here are my purchases from Duxford. I was extremely well behaved because I will shortly have a major purchase/project to show you! So here is the Riich models Universal Carrier and some allegedly hex shaped discs and RB barrels. DSC_2696 by TonyThunder, on Flickr I also collected this from Howard of KFS for an upcoming build.

Nice haul there Tony! The Riich Carrier is supposed to be just jam packed with detail, looking forward to seeing you tackle that one.

Gonna use the AK AB paints for the first time on the Pz.IV....looking forward to that! Gary Gary, I'll be curious what you make of the AK Panzergrau. Personally I found them rather too light for my taste. But then my intended use was on a 1/16 tank, where the scale lightening effect is significantly less.

Its Thinner for the AK paint set. I played with the AK paint on my old test bed M3-Lee and i must say im impressed. A bit of paint in the color cup with 2 drops of thinner and i got Great coverage and it layed down smooth a silk. I used more pressure than i do with Tamiya Paint. I do like the AK paint so far.

I also collected this from Howard of KFS for an upcoming build. Tony That is an interesting looking accessory kit from KFS. I was not familiar with them so I found their web site but do not see that kit on their site are they serious in the business or is it one of those hit and miss adventures. Bones

Bones Bones KFS are a small company owned and run by Howard Whitehead but have been in business for over 25 year! They deal exclusively in 1/24 scale, and up until about four years ago dealt exclusively in the Commercial Truck side of the hobby. About four years ago they diversified into the military side of things targeting Classic British Military vehicles as you can see from their web site. The kits are noted for their quality, accuracy and attention to detail. I have no links with the company other than being an extremely satisfied customer! The shackle set predates the military line and is found by going to the list on the left side of the home page and clicking on Metal Parts (the shackle set is about 10th on the list). HTH Tony
