I found this video very intersting. I served in Iraq and Somalia and feel the same way. Please watch.

Here is a video of T55 / T62 / T64's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0UmthizYSc&feature=related I spent 6 years in the Marine Corps. and I see alot of modelers make this mistake. They darken their models with a wash. I have never seen a tank get darker over time only lighter. Hope you enjoy the video. Keith

Hi Donnie, I enjoy building Russian equipment. T62's in Russian hands were 4B0 green over all for the duration of cold war. Testors Russian Green; I don't know what russian tanks this was on it is too blue. Do you like to air brushing in acrilics? Here is a paint formula for 4B0 Testors color. 1) Prime your tank in yellow. 2) Paint in 4B0. 4736 Interior Green 1 bottel Add 4606 Raw Umber 2 eye dropers Mix Well. 3) Spray Testors Semi-gloss over this and you will have a Russin Green T62. Hope this helps, Keith

Is there any liderature on vehicals that the Marines used during WWII?

Does any know if there were any GMC CCKW's or Dodge WC's used by the Marines in WWII?

Hey All, I have found a new paint line. So if you like air brushing with acrylics give Model Maker Z a shot. Here is their web address. http://www.modelmakerz.com/firm.html Try it out and see what you think. Keith

Hi I have built one of these old Tamaiya kits too. I replaced the incorectly pined track with AFV individual links. I also replced the gun barrel with one from lion mark. Over all a nice kit. Yes I put in USMC colors. Once a Marine always a Marine. http://albanyipms.com/zenphoto/models/armor/1-35/-/ I like the job you did on yours what color green did you use over all?

Hi, I was wondering if there are any other then super glue for glue resin plastic to resin or to regular pastic models? Thanks. Keith

Sneeky Nazis; doing the alignment like a tiger tank. OYH!

I like Russian armor and the reason there is no Storage on the tanks is because the tanks doubled as troop transports. Markings were painted on by the crews or tank regiments. This is why you don't see a good numbering system either.

I have purchased a M50 Isherman and it has DS Tracks in it. The instructions say to cut in some links and you have to install the guide teeth. How does one glue the teeth to the tracks and glue in extra links on vinal tracks. Any help will be great. Thanks

Hi, I am not trying to make a statement by the title of this; I am actually looking for a Punch and Die set from Waldron and where I can purchase one. If there is anyone that has used one before; what did you think? Thanks. Keith

Don't feel bad. The turms Differ in different branches of the military. Something towed behing a vehical in the Marines are called a Drag.

Hey Duke, Awesome job they all look good. What paint did you use on the Russian Armor? Keith

Has anyone worked with Model Maker Z paints and where are they avalible?
