Model Armour

No more of this 1/35 scale modeling. I am going 1 scale.

Great video Dennis, thanks!

I spotted a missing rivet!

Vinnie

Cool video.

Where is the back-up alarm though? Shouldn't it have on for health and safety reasons?

Matt

Wow.

Now that looks and sounds like the real thing

Here's the "build log": Page 1, Page 2.

These guys should build some more. I'm sure there are enough rich people who'd like to buy one

Did any one else notice what appeared to be a T34 turret in the background? It was covered in snow, but it looked like a turret to me.

Here is a trailer for the movie it was made for.

Don't speak Russian so if any of or Russian friends would like to interpret?

Dennis

Ok. Here's what I understood. The film is named White Tiger. Some of the dialog from the first part of the trailer,
"What can be said about this tank, The White Tiger?"--in the conference room

"Do you know what are they saying about this tank?"--in front of the fireplace

"He is dangerous when they see him."--second shot in front of the fireplace

The conversations continue as to the nature of this new legendary super tank. They speculate as to the danger, how this particular one is special.

The director is named Carl Dontworryyoucantpronounceit.

"Let's go!"--from the guy inside the T-34

Silver letters read: "In this year, a legend of genuine history becomes a reality."

"White Tiger. In theaters soon."

We can ask our native speakers of Russian how well I did with the translation.

I had no idea they were doing this. I totally want to see this movie! Seems a shame to burn up all those replicas.

Why is it I think John had his tongue firmly in cheek when he translated that?

Vinnie

'cause John's tongue is firlmly in cheek with everything he does!*

Matt

*Hopefully with the exception of flying.

Time 49 sec's...50 sec's it is in front of the Tiger Replica. Can't say for sure if that is a turret in really rough shape or a replica turret?

Could also be a KV-1 turret.

Cool links Dennis!
