You could call it I-2, but then some tosser will probably come up and tell you (at great length) that it should be ME-2.

Shouldn't that be BF-2?

The colonists in that blockhouse will get a hell of a shock when the Russkies turn up.

Yep, logs ain't gonna be much protection from an 122mm shell... It's a shame the colours got so washed out by the light, I put a fair bit of contrast into the early war panzers and now they just look mouse grey. I am very happy with how the Japanese armour came out, so now it's tracks, tyres and tools, seal with gloss varnish, decal and get on with weathering.

Good work - can't wait to see the finished items (especially the Malaya stuff).

I dunno, the 122mm is probably a through and through, the stug would be a bigger issue.

Thanks.. I seriously can't believe how much easier it is with decent kit. I've struggled with clogging and splatter for years, and I should have just paid the cash and made my life easier. I should have remembered the old saying, 'Only a poor workman blames his tools, but only a poor workman has poor tools'.

Clogging and splatter is sometimes an issue after a night on the lash
