Type 74 on the Rails

I like the way this looks. The figures look great as well. I agree, there should be some more Japanese armor represented here. I myself am guilty of not doing any. Quick question, what are you using for the Railroad I-beams? Sean

Great Job, the guys looks really cool . I like the railway setting too, something very different as usual Well executed dio, congratulations Cheers Claude

simple but effective very nice build cheers Keith Forsyth

He was right! Always interested in seeing Armour from around the world, especially when it is a well done dio like this! Cheers, Michael

Thanks guys! I did a VERY detailed in-progress of this build which you can view here: http://fichtenfoo.com/02GiantRobots/02b-JGSDFType74.htm I wanted it to be a tutorial of sorts for the robot modelers at my board to get into armor. The railroad tracks are from a local model railroad shop. I bought a section and ripped it apart to make it wider and to paint/detail it. I have a few more JGSDF pieces to build yet including the Type 87, Type 82 and the recon motorcycle. Those should be fun!

Superb job of a little known vehicle.

Michael- Looks great! Nice weathering. The Type 74 has very clean lines,nice low profile. Again, great job!! Rob- MiG-17

NIcely done! A very well executed diorama. If I ever get my own diorama completed, I hope mine achieves one small iota of the quality of this dio!

that's really sharp, very "crisp" which really goes well with modern armour I think. Well done on a great model.
