Ernie Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I will take a chance at building the ubiquitous Swedish "S" tank using the Trumpeter 1/35 scale kit. It has been several years since I have built a piece of armor so this will be interesting. I have a couple of additions to add to the kit; Trumpeter's individual link tracks and an RB Productions barrel, both of which should be worthwhile additions to the kit. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christer A Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Nice!,It was "tested" in a Swedish Car program in the 80:s, when car TV programs were more interested in testing normal cars, and where testing meant "how many baby strollers fit in the trunk etc" Very serious stuff, but once in a while they went a bit nuts, like in this clip. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 welcome along and with the first AFV and not anyone, but the "S-Tank" as everyone outside of Sweden know it as. I was looking forward to seeing one of these in the build, I've loved the look of them ever since I first saw pictures of them a very long time ago. And a nice replacement barrel to go with her. It'll be interesting to see how those tracks go, it's a shame Friulmodel don't do a set of tracks for her. Good luck with the build hopefully a trouble free one and I'll be following with interest. The guy I find a bit annoying (other then when he nearly looses his hand opening a hatch, 3rd video I think) but it's a really detailed walking around, well worth watching......and yes I know it's a 103C.

Enzo the Magnificent Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Excellent choice! I will also be building an S-tank, but mine will be the later 103C version so our builds should complement each other nicely. The video was great. I liked the demonstration of inline parking in a tank, but then he messed it up. It's not gonna do his no claims bonus any good at all! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Delighted to see another vehicle build, not seen or heard of this kit before, good luck with the build. Cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
