Hello all!
I’ve got my entry for this Group Build on the bench.
The tank is from the ‘Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2’ video game released in 2000.
In case you are interested in a wider, more in depth look at the tank and the game world it came from than I am doing a build log here on the armor section. It will allow me to keep my off-topic blether about the tank and the game from clogging up this thread!
I will be posting the actual kit construction bits here.
So far I’ve barely done anything. Of interest though is the fact this kit needs no glue or paint. The sprues are pre-coloured. You can see it built up without paint here on the box sides.
And here you can see the colors on the sprues
Personally I think it looks a bit too toy-like compared to the painted version.
I’ll be both painting and gluing mine.
There is also three battery powered LED’s which is cool though the instructions don’t agree what battery they need!
I think they are fairly similar small button batteries so I will try both types.
Not much in the way of major component assembly yet but will update when I get some more done.
Thanks for reading.
