Italeri M1-A1 Abrams Tank Scale Model Kit with Resin Engine Deatil Parts
I have always wanted to build an Abrams M1-A1 tank kit. Most of the kits I have seen seemed kind of basic, and I just never got around to getting one.
I really wanted a kit with an engine, since I like the mechanical / powerplant aspects of a machine. I found out later that there are a few resin engine conversions available. Most were from small companies, online, who didnt take credit cards. Or I just didn't get around to ordering them seperate, or ordering them from overseas.
Then one day I was in my local hobby shop, and there it was (cue the sounds of Angels singing. LOL ) Bang! There was the kit I always wanted! Granted, the engine parts and interior were resin, but I could deal with that. Without hesitation, I shoved it under my arm, and when I checked out, that baby was on it's way home. The years of waiting were over !
Now, I don't build armor kits all the time, so I am taking it slow, and we will see what will come of it. But it has been fun so far. I look forward to working on it each time I sit down on the bench. (Though I do work on several projects all at one time). I am posting an image now, but I will continue to post them as it goes along. :-)
