This Month's Theme is...

The theme for the month of February is Tanks. You've all seen them. You've all looked in awe at the enormous gun on the front of them. You've all wanted to build one. Most of you have. Tanks are some of the most popular model themes and there are lots of excellent kits out there. The only problem about armour models is the price. If you want a really awesome and realistic armour kit with photo etched pieces and the whole nine yards, expect to lay down about $50-$70. This makes it difficult to buy good medium to large scale armour kits. Actually, if you want a fair amount of detail or realism at a good price, I reccomend buying small. By small I mean 1/72 scale tanks, and I have to reccomed Airfix for their quality, quantity and some interesting tank designs such as the Churchill Crocodile Tank and the Sherman Crab tank, with more on the way this year like the Matilda Hedgehog, the Sherman Calliope, and the Churchill bridge layer.
