Thanks.. I'll take a look when I get home, I hate the little gun.. on this and the FAV, one thing PTE sucks at! I wish I had something else to put there. In "my world" as the little accompanying story depicts.. the tank is in the hands of Islamic terrorists, so I imagine they have not been...

Yeah, thats the issue.. a serve lack of Eastern ANYTHING. I wish I had some RPK's or something heavier from Russia.. bah. We wlll have to use our..

Thanks Paul n Red... yeah I wanted to do more with the commanders view ports etc.. It's hard finding decent pictures of the Type-98 to base things off of. Where do the Aux. fuel tanks connect to? I still have yet to drybrush it, and I really want to get a bigger black backdrop (not a fan of the...

Rick, Start with some pictures online, and go from there. That's generally what I did, as I've never been in a HMMWV overseas to figure out how they'd do things. I put the rack w/ launchers on the hatch up top, so the gunner could quickly grab the rocket launcher if needed, and use it to...

Haha glad you liked that part.. It's sad cause it's true, teen boys are like a delicacy there for the older tribesmen :-/

Did my little story work? :)

Thought about that, but figured would Taliban/terrorists have nice packs to hang on there? Tough cause I dont have much Russian/Enemy stuff.

When I get a second one :) And yeah I wanted to add hoses but don't have any in my fodder bin. I need to do some more weathering, and need a bigger black backdrop too! Like I said, it was a fun quick project, there is a surprising lack of detail, and the side stowage things are too small for...

I have TWO CASES of Wave 5 vehicles from BBTS.. that I NEVER OPENED! They sit in storage somewhere.. kind of like at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark..

I know the feeling.. thats why I've made it a point to go through stuff I ALREADY have, and not buying new stuff.. this damn tank sat in its box since last September or something! Finally did something with it.

عبان is Arabic for 'snake' and will be incorporated into my 9th Special Forces Group (Airborne) stories and customs as an al-Qaeda aligned group operating in Afghanistan in 2001/2002 and across the world... Excerpt from AFGHAN-SITREP: SNAKE/Type-98-Prototype DATE REQUESTED: 22 JAN 2002...

Don't do it! It's only a few inches shorter.. and it's basically the same price.. Let the size flow through you.. I can feel your size swelling in you now... Wow.. okay that went from a funny star wars pun about scale to,.. an Eddie'ism. Eww an "Eddieism"? THAT sounds disturbing. Anyway, just...

Big Lots has two probably.. this one, which is called the "MAIN BATTLE TANK!!! OMGZORZ!!" and is based on the Chinese Type-98, and they also carry the "COMBAT TANK" which is a green tank based on the M1 Abrams. Their Abrams is crap compared to the Target Bravo Team one (in details and quality)...

Also, I think you should donate a building to the Fighting 1:18th so our figures can have a clubhouse and so we can review it :D

THEY"RE ACTION FIGURES!@!!!11111!!!!1111!!

coming along...

Yeah it's always by hand.. And little brushes too! Haha I just don't have any other means.. So it works. And by extraneous I meant it was removable, so I took everything that could be taken off before painting :) I'm not going to do anything fancy, I have a couple wild ideas..

That requires (A) rattle cans, and (B) going outside.. I'm lazy.. and my stuff is static so it aint getting much wear n tear :)

... and by HAND no less.. haha I don't have any fancy airbrushes...

So I've decided to distract myself from HMMWV's and try to do something eeeeeeeeeeeeeevil for a change.. so I popped open my PTE "Main Battle Tank" aka Chinese Mini-Type-98. It's hard to find concrete stats on the Type-98, as it never made it to full production (They went with the Type-99...
