Thanks.. If I have time I'll do a part 2.

the 109 is a little 32 scale one that I found at WalMart last week.

Fun stuff and yes I need to let them dry off before I can display them...so they sit in my garage for the next battle.

Very nice Tambo. I wouldn't have thought the great state of TN would have snow this time of year! And it is nice to see another 1/32 convert! 8)

LOL great pics! But i think the Germans have taken too much time refueling...

The unit has been changed from 5th SS Wiking to 6th SS Nord while waiting for their tank to be topped off! :lol:
