phantom Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Holy CRAP!!! And I gave away my 1/48 Herc cause it was too BIG!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
strikeeagle801 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 (edited) They have a 1/43 scale P-3C Orion and a 1/16 scale M1 MBT as well. Wow. That is pretty impressive. Aaron Edited December 5, 2006 by strikeeagle801 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kap64 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I've talked to the guy a few times who built those, great guy. His name is Russ French. You should check out some of the 1/72 scale ships he and the club built, especially his Winston Churchill. http://www.taskforce72.org/archive/images/DSC07377.JPG Quote Link to post Share on other sites

David Walker Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 That's impressive. 1100mm wingspan, that's what, about three and a half feet? I'd need a new garage to store it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jrallman Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 It would be sweet to see it in a diorama, maybe air-dropping a 1/35 scale M1A1 out the open back hatch! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Viperguy Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Now I'm not afraid to build my 1/48 C130. :blink: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
