I was standing (sitting, kneeling, collapsing) in front of my stash the other day, wanting to do some MODELING for cryin' out loud, and couldn't decide what to start, or which shelf queen to get back on, and starting to lock up, when I saw a little box, on end, between stacks of kits, that didn't need any PE, no anti-slip, no Friuls, nada, zip, skip. So I spent about six hours on a single kit, and it's finished.
And, I've finally done a French tank.
This thing was pure fun, the parts fit, minimal clean-up, and it made me laugh. And no, it's not completely OOB, I drilled holes and added a grab handle.

Very cute, Russ! Something like this cries out for some sort of hot rod treatment, though...including a Rat Fink riding the thing!

I seriously thought about cutting the turret hatch open and sticking a fig in there, but then I thought: "Do that and you'll never finish". It actually appeared in my head like that, in type, complete with quotation marks, in a cartoon bubble. Maybe next time. Maybe a Jimmy Flintstone fig or something.

Nice little beastie Russ! It always helps to do something simple like this at times. This one looks amazing.
