Hi all,
This is my Crab. It's a combination of the Dragon Firefly, Tamiya M4 and Resicast conversion kit. I've replaced the Resicast flails with brass flails + balls, and I've added a tow cable, spare flails, camouflage net and tent roll. I also applied a little bit of mud already, maybe I'll add more. I've also ajusted the marking devices/lights on the rear of the tank into transporting position. You can see the tank is a bit heavy on the front. Is this realistic or should I add a counter weight?
Hope you all like it!
Martin

Looks fine!
I think it must be the deal if you plce some stowage on the back. That would help a lot!

Hey
No stowage there, not visible on pics and I guess not much stowage was carried by tanks during a landing!
