Hi Richie,

Sorry matey not this weekend, some of us have to work weekends. Glad you all liked the Mpeg's, now I have found out how to download & edit these things we might see more, especially now I know how Youtube works! I have some footage of our first meet, when I get time I will upload them.

Antony,

We will have to look at setting something up next time, now I am more confidant with the camera. The video of you Panther would have been really good if I hadn't got you all in it, mind you I was only playing around with the camera, mind you that little tripod certainly does the trick and saves getting down in the mud!!

Paul

Great videos guys, I agree the Panther and Sherman both look and sound Awesome! Tony the Opel is really cool, is it a scratch build?
Thanks for posting pix and vids.

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your kind comments. The Opel is scratch built, mainly in wood, by Ray Spooner. He has built various models, mainly british, I'll post his web address when I find it. It also has a superb new paint job by Paul Morris

.It really is a great runner and great fun to drive.
Clive is actually in the process of building a metal one. Can't wait to see some photo's of that too

There will be loads more videos coming soon as I have just invested in a suction stand for my camera

. I want to get a commanders view point while driving it around, should be interesting. We have fog forecast for next Tuesday so I might be out early to get some shots of my Panther in the mist

.

Thanks Antony

Tony,
I would like to build a metal Opel as well. Or maybe the halftrack version? That would be really cool.
If you can find Rays address that would be great! I agree the paint job on the Blitz looks great. I love Clives Sherman, its one of the best E8's I've ever seen. I don't suppose he'd share or post any build details? Hint Hint?

Thanks guys have a great Christmas.
Bob

Hi Bob,

Here you go:

Remember all these are scratch built mostly out of wood and all are R/C'd

Thanks Antony
