The Red Menace


This is a JS Russian Tank escorting some armoured Russian corp to meet the germans. The Zvezda tank was quite good except the instructions were in russian, and condensed to 1 page! Also, the tracks were the type that you undercoat, paint and then it all flakes off!!! How do you stop that from happening! The tree is a root that I found outside the garage. I specifically wanted to do a red tank to go with the whole Russian theme.

Mein Gott! Imagine those suckers marching in on Berlin for the final asault! Beautiful work MC, your imagination never ceases to amaze me!

Faraway, If they have armor suits do they need a tank?
I guess a little extra firepower never hurts.
Great work, It’s like 2245 + 1945. The bright red is a nice departure from the usual greens and browns.

very original!!!
[8D]

Awesome job. But please get off the drugs, you are becoming color blind. Great job. Very original and neat.

The armor with the tank is a great combonation. They really look like it could have happend. I like that alot.[:D][tup][tup][tup]

Many thanks for the comments. I get a lot of “What???” from military modellers, so am getting pretty used to it. I’ve only got 1 more 1/35 Maschinen Krieger kit left now to do a cross build so that’ll only leave my 1/20 stash LOL.
Hey, and Braxat…give it a go! This is my 4th cross build, and whereas you can’t please everybody, you certainly can please yourself :slight_smile:

Yikes,MC,your killin me with this futuristic stuff LOL,gotta admitt though ya do know how to pull it off,excellent work! Love the flag and the tree,the red tank,iffy!!

WOW. Reminds me of Red Alert. I love this, it’s absolutely spectacular. Origina, imaginative, and fully satisfying my lust for the red tide!!! MUAHAHAHA. Excellent job. What are the mecha suits from?

MC, you have to get your T-34 dio up here too, that is one of my favs of yours!

cool idea, nice work, way to go [:)]

Very cool! Great job.
It’s great to see something a little “different,” particularly when it’s well-executed!

Great idea!

I have 5 1/35 MAKs and a MAN 10t with a crane arm I’m going to use as transport for them… as a futuristic “response to terrorism” in much the same manner you have done here. Great job, love the off-the-beaten-path color.
Those 1/35 MAKs are hard to find, but once in awhile you can find them on eBay

Looks awesome! I like the combo of the futuristic and the WWII

Fantastic work here…very futuristic with the armored suits. Where can one get those armored soldiers?
