Never had pizza for breakfast, or a snack later or the next day?
We regularly buy pizzas far too large for our appetites and even we get two for the price of one.
What we don’t eat, we save for another day, it actually works out more cost efficient to buy one large pizza when you know you can’t finish it than two small ones…

I have used those as well, but for these markings I want to portray a few different methods of marking - Hastily painted with a brush, carefully painted with a brush, and sprayed. So I’ll use various methods on different models. Using the correcting ribbon as I did above made a hastily applied marking better than I could have if I tried. And I like the way you can see the corners overlap, just as you would with some 1:1 paint jobs. I can also go back with a very fine brush and add some tiny drips if I want.

I haven’t seen the other offerings Rob, but I have to sing the praises of the Zvezda Pantsir. I am building it now for the 8 wheelers campaign, and it is lovely.
A couple of minor… And I mean minor things are all that I had with it. The only thing I didn’t like was how they get the rear wheels to connect to the axle hub. But, I got there without any significant issues. And the detailing on all of it is great. Very recommended.
Lmao ! Is there anyone down range ??
when I came home thru Can Rhon Bay, right next to the transit depot was a small white shack that actually sold cheese burgers and pizza. Yours truly ate to cheese burgers and a whole pizza! Still weighed 143lb. before boarding. No fat boys in the bush

I wonder if he’s still grinning now …

It might just be that the grinning face belongs to a Ukrainian who has “liberated” this truck from the invading oppressors who brought it to Ukraine

Check first which type of Pantsir you want to model. To my knowledge Zvezda, Tiger Model and Meng make different types.

You know your logistics are bad when enemy civilians are taking care of tank recovery for you.
Heard a story yesterday that the Russians had to leave two tanks in a village because they were out of gas. While they were out getting fuel, the locals put Ukrainian flags on both tanks. When the Russians got back, they assumed their tanks had been captured and blew them up.

Oh dear!
If that is true it would be hilarious ![:rofl: :rofl:](https://forums.kitmaker.net/images/emoji/google/rofl.png?v=12)
I do hope it is true, it would be a very sad day if it was a myth ![:grin: :grin:](https://forums.kitmaker.net/images/emoji/google/grin.png?v=12)
While Zvezda kits are generally less expensive, I believe it’s an earlier version. The Meng kit can make four different versions, and can be had with resin wheels. I changed my mind and decided to go with Meng. It’ll be interesting to compare cab fit and detail between Meng, Zvezda and ICM. Yes, I know they do not all make the same kits, but they do all make recent Kamaz based trucks of one kind or another.

This pretty much sums up my feelings on that subject.
So I taught pistol marksmanship over the weekend to my unit. Although it was PowerPoint (only because they can’t say they didn’t get the info - I give a very dynamic hands on class) it’s not a block of instruction anyone will EVER fall asleep during.
I always start with a motivational slide. I used this:
My unit is very officer centric, with several Colonels and Lieutenant Colonels in attendance, so I had to do a bit of
‘splainin’. I reached into my pocket and pulled out a coffee filter. I said, “When I told my wife I was training you guys this weekend she told me to remember my filter. I don’t know what the f**k I’m supposed to do with this thing though.”
