All the kits in this GB so far are fantastically interesting, I'd love to have a go at them all and I'm looking forward to watching as things progress
This is what I've chosen, a bit of an oddball to say the least. For those who've never seen one in action I'd recommend taking a look on Youtube and the like, it really does take a different approach from turreted MBTs
I'll wait until I start the build to decide whether it will need a turned barrel or any other extras. Anyone know where I can get 1970s Swedish tankers in 1/35...... no, thought not
Cheers, Andy

Oh great choice Andy! Quite funny fact, Stridsvogn = Battle wagon.
A very handy bit of armour designed to run rings around the big Russian tanks in woodland. A very cleaver way of aiming as well....Its all done with the wheels.

Designed to dig down or hide in the undergrowth Ole. If I remember they are not much higher than a man is tall.

I did the YouTube thing and, my god ...is that a nimble piece of kit or what!!!!!
most impressed. never seen one before now .. ingenious design eh?
This is going to be a fun build Andy, looking forward to it mate.
Have fun, John
OK, so I've had a look at the kit and I decided to get the Eduard etch and the ally barrel was just so nice I had to get that too
I'm working nights this week so I should get the build started soon
Cheers, Andy
