Completed this one back in 2005 before my path diverged away from Allied armor...but we won't talk about that!

Academy's M10 Duckbill kit with a bunch of Verlinden stowage added to it. Had a blast working on the interior and all the little detail bits.

Thanks guys! This one was actually the 2nd time I'd build this particular kit. No idea what happened to the first one, it disappeared somewhere along the way, but this one still sits in the display case 'holding the line' against the Axis horde that surrounds it.

It's not possible at the moment Gary...I don't have any Allied armor in the stash, all Axis at the moment, so will probably be a long while before that would happen unfortunately! The last 'allied' kit I had was the T-34/76 Beute that I did earlier this year in w/w over the Russian Green.

YOOOOUUUU??? I nearly fell off the chair just like Gary said. Great build!!! I'd love to see you build another Allied armor one day...

And I still don't have M10 in stash but one day I will because I am not too sure which is a better kit... AFV Club and Academy ?

I know it comes as a shock Andy, but yes, me!

Never say never when it comes to what I will build in the future.

I can't offer any advice in terms of AFV vs. Academy, IIRC they both have their plus and minus qualities. At the time the Academy kit was cheaper and available at my LHS which is why it was chosen.
