I've seen poorly painted/assembled tanks sell on eBay for more than buying the damned thing new would be! My only theory is that some people just HATE assembling and painting and are willing to pay a bit more for something assembled and painted - even if it's been poorly assembled and painted!?timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928949644765765070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140646711960604590.post-20254768545789594412017-12-11T12:35:20.250-08:002017-12-11T12:35:20.250-08:00Thanks!

I may not use it for this one. In my mind's eye I imagine these driving through dry desert and I'm not that picky... I'll definitely keep it in mind if I ever have the same problem with other tanks though! timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928949644765765070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140646711960604590.post-83609438021062014212017-12-11T12:31:23.444-08:002017-12-11T12:31:23.444-08:00Thanks!

You could probably cake a little "mud" onto the tracks, and cover up that gap if you wanted. <br /><br />and lol at "Charity" for the punisher variant.

Kitchen looks good, I'm just on the woodwork on the staircase in the corner of the kitchen, newel posts, skirts and spindles lots of white! <br />Best Iain caveadsum1471https://www.blogger.com/profile/02174163740406928172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140646711960604590.post-34856409164354102952017-12-10T16:51:34.523-08:002017-12-10T16:51:34.523-08:00thanks Millsy!
Heh... well a year or so ago befo...thanks Millsy! <br /><br />Heh... well a year or so ago before 8th edition came out assembled tanks could be had for half price - and I'm a sucker for a bargain! I'd gotten a Chimera before I got this and it was in pretty good condition... so I thought I'd grab this one. As you say, it (mostly) turned out okay... Once I have a troop of them on the table - no one will notice if one of them looks a little wonky. timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928949644765765070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140646711960604590.post-11332159672745518292017-12-10T14:52:18.222-08:002017-12-10T14:52:18.222-08:00Sounds like you encountered similar issues to myse...Sounds like you encountered similar issues to myself with buying a completed Russ from fleaBay. They come up alright in the end with a little care and attention though. I like your reasoning and execution of the markings too. And the kitchen is really starting to look good. Hopefully all will be done in time for the holidays!Millsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580692168847505881noreply@blogger.com
