....but then a 1/32 italeri tonka gr.4 (which i'll adapt to gr.1) accidentally fell into my basket, together with kitsworld decals, and a pitot tube so I may be joining you with that

Well that would be awesome!

What if the piece of equipment was painted in desert colured paint, but ended up not actually serving in a desert/tropical setting? 

Well as its the colours of the subject that is important I would think that your idea would  be perfectly fine. Are there any pictures of these as I like the sound of a desert coloured Pz IVG.

but then I fell in love with the idea of either the upcoming new tacom or meng apache in desert scheme...

That would be great Paul, the IDF AH-64's in their unique desert camo really do look very good.

But then the Tonka would also be a great choice, especially with some nice nose art.

I was considering 'Foxy KIller' Craig. There's a lot of online photographic reference and I got inspired by the wonderful jenesis.

Have you seen her channel? She's such an underrated Youtuber, she should be much more seen; really knows her stuff. I'm a big fan.

@Sam this series is great reference for your build too.

Hello Paul

 

thank you for the interesting link to jenesis‘ channel. First impression, She really does seem to know well what she‘s doing. I will surely be watching her episodes on the Tonka.

This is the best photo during the lead up to the planned invasion of Malta, the crew are also undoubtedly sporting tropical clothing:

A few of the smaller tanks, but I've not come across any where the crew is wearing tropical gear:

Looking forward to this GB, and looking at the stash I think I've already got a perfect subject crying out to be built. Got it for £25 when Gforce models closed a few months back.

Have just received a Tamiya Challenger 2tank so may just have a 2nd build to do with my Saudi Hunter. Unless I find a better camouflage option ? 

Another cracking choice Dennis, a big chunk of desert coloured heavy metal.

Indeed.  The Arma Hobby Hurricane IIc is a little gem!

I totally lost track of this years GB nominations and voting, I'm hoping to build a Thunder Models 1/35 Scammell Pioneer with 30 ton goose neck trailer for the transport GB. To then add a Grant MkII for this one.

Perfect. This could turn out to be quite armour heavy as a gb. Great 👍
