HOLY SHEEEET!!! Bill is going to build something with wings... it means there's a hope that our Dicky will too one day!!! Life is good... Only if CB holds up his end of the bargain. I'm not even going to cut through the sealing plastic until I see pics of painted items in his WIP thread!

Thanks to CB's promise to complete a build in 2013, this arrived on my doorstep this afternoon. No pressure CB! I think I just felt a shift in the earths axis

Maybe this is very early April Fools' Day prank??? Never fear gents, this is legitimate and guaranteed not to create a distortion in the space-time continuum...unless of course, CB does complete his kit, in which case we are in unknown territory! As with the recent ship build, by ensuring it's a German subject, the laws of the universe are being slightly stretched and not broken entirely.

Bill...hope to see you doing that Me mate...I built a Me109 1/32 (Eduard) last year and it was a refreshing change from the armor jackwagon, those are seriously cool figures mate! Well, I thought:, 'hey, it's almost Chrimbo, so I'll treat myself a bit.' Guess no one saw that Stryker comin' ey Cheers

The one on the left allows you to bend wire, photoetch or styrene in tubes, rings, cones and hemisphere. The one on the right is tailored to do handles of fixed width in steps of .5mm and adjustable height

Gary, hope so, Heico is organizing a 'War on terror' build on a Dutch forum at the beginning of next year, so from then I'll start blogging her. Glad I chose not to depict one with the bar armor Spud, thanks dude. The Tiger thingy ain't masks. I have a 1/48 AFV Club Tiger in progress for a couple of years which I want to continue now (thanks to your 1/48 Tiger). The decals are very bad though, so I bought a 1/48 decal sheet (Hussar Productions) Cheers

yeah, I really don't get how one would do that slat armor on a model. If you build it onto the model and paint it: it'll be a pain in the bum, if you construct the slat seperately, and paint it and then add to the model, it'll be a pain in the bum...it would be much too frustrating in any case...and I don't want pain in the bum jackwagon, that's a bummer mate...we could have done a dual build mmm, none deployed without slat? I thought I had found some shots of them without...then again, quite possible that those pics were of the MGS in it's testing phase. Anywhoo, ever since I saw it at History Channel (not much history on the channel these days ) I wanted to build one Cheers

There are several unslatted in service with National Guard units I believe Wouts, but I meant deployed to Iraq and AFG Yer good to go fella..... If yer wanna do a multi-wheeled Dual Build fella just holler - I have the current French VCBI with anti-RPG netting (don't ask!) ready to go in 2014 sounds good to me mate, that's a deal then ^^ mmm...I meanwhile, I have to find a creative solution then to be able to have the Stryker in a 'War on terror' GB without adding slat Cheers
