Hello,
I’m new to this site and the area of armor. I normally build sci fi models and also Japanese robots [which I have been studing armor in order to make them more realistic because they are in actuality a form of tank].
Any way recenty I have started building real tanks because my dad noticed my still with all the other crap i build and asked me to build a Bradley which he bought.
Anyway to make a long story short i have been “bit by the armor bug” and i noticed that my local Hobby Lobby store just started carrying a line of kits i had never heard of called Hobby Craft. [After some research on line I have discoverd that they are out of Canada and have been around awhile.] Anyway I noticed that they were some of the cheapest armor kits on the shelves. How is their quality? Are they any good? I have only been able to find reveiws of their aircraft models on line but none on their armor.
First off welcome to the forum. This was brought up before and you might find out what you need from this topic. Hope it helps:

I just finished the T69 II, and to be honest it gave me plenty of headaches… however you can make a decent kits of their russian tanks… when it comes to the American and British tanks the quality goes up quite a bit, the one thing that I’m still trying to figure out is the decals, they all bring 2 sets of decals, the only problem is that the decal instructions in the back of the box are extremely vague so you’ll have to fend for yourself on that one… hope this helps you
Thanks guys, i’ll check that thread!
