The KV2 was known to be top heavy. The turret often jammed when not level. The KV3 in Brian's post above even more so, although the rate of fire was improved.... :wink:

A real fake, I mean! :twisted:

Looks a litte too new and 'floats' over the ground without caving in. Nearly all models do that on solid grounds. Sand is much better for that.

Morning all
I was trying to get some photos of the steel track links for a customer, and as it’s been a while since this tread was updated I thought that some photos to refresh it and would give the new members a chance to enjoy looking at some of the works of art that have been made over the years.

Thanks
Liam
