[Guest]

found it! so im in

comes with 5 schemes.....a Chinese Korean war one as on the box but theres also 3 Soviet and 1 Polish WW2 ones......im thinking of a winter whitewash scheme.....maybe

Welcome aboard Paul, nice choice mate

[Gern]

As Paul has picked the JSU-152, I checked my stash list (yes, I've created a spreadsheet for my stash!) and remembered I bought the Dragon box of the 1/35 Alan Su-76 at Cosford this year.

I've just spent two hours in my spare room looking for it. Have any of you guys broken in and nicked it for this GB, 'cos I'm b******d if I can find it!?

[Gern]

I find! I had it stacked sideways on a shelf. I have a kit of the BA-20 armoured car, and I think it's very confusing of Dragon to advertise different kits on the side of their boxes!!

Having looked at this one though, I think I'll probably stick with my original choice. Lots of flash and some mis-moulded parts mean this would need lots of work. There are other kits I want to build without spending lots of time on this one.

Just got this on order from John in the shop. So you can count me in.

Here's mine. Two in a box. Depending on the final 'Rules' for this build, I'm hopefully going to model them trundling down a wrecked East German village street.

You could do the same as you did for the Cosford 'under a fiver build'. Pictures of the finished tanks on their own then a separate thread in the Diorama section.

Good plan, Stan. That'll keep everyone happy......

I think it would be a good idea if each GB had its own gallery section where pictures of completed builds could be posted. No comments, just the pics.

They do it over on Britmodeller & it works well.

Hi Dave I've got the same kit in the stash, I tried starting it several years ago, and put it back in the box, it truly is a horrible kit, the plastic is too soft and everything seemed too thick, I keep saying that I will get around to building it....but not just now

Hi Patrick good suggestion mate.

I assumed that Dragon would only re-box an old kit if it was close to their own kit quality. Looks like I was wrong.
