Tamiya's The one and only truly original...

Post by MakingModelsAgain »

Built this in the time it normally takes me to unfold the instructions on most of my kits, namely 48 hours from lunchtime on a Tuesday to about the same time on Thor's day. Out of box except for enhancements to the headlights. I added imitation bulbs and ribbed lenses.

My Rinky-dink Panther...

Think Pink !

This is some slogan of Portuguese Rose Wine :-) ,

Great Build , Very nice Dio ... Just thinking how a jeep is pink camouflage for the desert , but seems that worked , I'm just thinking of some Crusader in Pink during Desert War ...that should be nice to see ..

Well enough of my 'rubish' ...Gary ! Again a model for our delight , amazing build , wonderfull little details , i saw this already once , twice ...three times a lady , wwll she's dressed in pink , right ? :th:
Cheers ,
António
