I bought another LRDG last night. To replace the one I gave away. I couldn't resist the $13 price tag in our LHS.

Now for the problem with the Tamiya wheels. Is there a better set out there?

The Tank Workshop set TWS0088 $16.20CDN
from the Barrel Store are exactly like the Tamiya set except made of resin so no tire cracking, and made to be glued right onto the axles after clean up and painting.

You'll be glad to know that in return, I gave my fellow modeller, unfortunately not a member of armorama, a Tamiya Marder A1 as a birthday gift and let him use my airbrush since he mistakenly sent his set home.

A nice example of "Pay it forward". The wheels are in the mail. Let us see pics when you're done.

How do you accidentally send an airbrush? Seems it would take quite some effort to pack one up and ship it
