U.S.A M47 Patton 1/35 Final reveal

Post by TheTroyster »

Okay men here we are!
Since this tank was never used by the US in a combat role I thought I would call the whole subject something like "Cold War Relic" or "Left in the weeds" or "Dust bin of History" but nothing seems to fit just right. My 8 year old son built the base mostly and put the "weed" in the engine compartment - which I thought was a nice touch. So I am kind of hoping the model will just speak for itself. This is my first GB and it was a blast! Thanks ISM and all Members!
Since I can not figure out how to up-load more than three pics at a time - I'll just have to do several post here.

Great build and a very simple base sets it off perfectly.
