hello everyone I fancied a change from sci fi and went back to my tank days and decided to have a go at scratch building a Renault ft17 tank. It was a bit of a challenge but that is what model making and life is all about. Any way pictures speak louder than words so here are some pictures of the build I hope some one out there likes it.
regards Barrie ( the old guy who will build anything ) as for scale well its bigger than 1/35th scale but not full size.
