KV-1

Post by pcsguy88 » Mon Mar 08, 2010 2:46 am

I thought some of you guys might like to see pics of my completed 1:16 KV-1.

Sorry the pics are so large, I don't have access to photobucket from work to chop them down.

Nice work. 8) I believe several new HL tanks are slated for release this year, so it should be interesting to see what they come out with.

Thanks ostketten. Bill with RcCommand stated 4 new models will be announced and released any time now and the Panther G and KV-1 will be made available as kits.

The kit idea certainly excites me if the price is lowered since I only keep the upper hull and electronics, then toss the rest. Too bad I've already purchased a Panther G and am currently building it up.

Nice one :D I'm doing an ElMod SU-152 conversion of the Heng Long KV-1 at the moment.

I can't wait to see one of those conversions completed. This KV is Asiatam from the fender down and weighs around 14lbs. I still run HL electronics, but I just might toss Elmod or Tamiya in there if I ever find a battle group within driving distance.

any ideas as to what the 4 new tanks will be? I would think one will be a KV 2, seems like a no brainer easy way to nearly double sales of the KV chassis. Any british armour coming?

We know the first tank is the Sherman and we can guess one would be the KV-2. I'm really hoping for a T34 and maybe a KT for the other 2, but British would be welcome also. VsTank is probably the only way we will see British armor in the rc world
