Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
While watching Harry Potter and Hunger Games with my daughters did some painting. I never thought I would watch those movies. So I had to move to set up a temporary painting station in family room.

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
For ROD to see what’s on my table or in que....
M1A2 with MG buckets on all except 2 with crewed HMG. All have or will have LMG, from TUSK stems.
In background is some stuff received from the gamer bud.
Some of this stuff has been on the table for a few months.
4 Leopard 2A6 with Model Masters SAC Green, I might not be able to get any more of that color. It will be for Swedes, Norwegians, Finland and Balzac Republic.
M2A2 hulls, M2A3 turrets, probably will be in 3-tone NATO.

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
I converted these M901 to M113 a few years ago.
Converting 12 back to M901. But the M113 with .50 cal look very nice.

Gee Whiz, Chris. I think it's high time you helped with the dishes, vacuumed the living room, changed the bed, and did some laundry. You have WAY too much time for painting. Does your wife bring your dinner down to the basement and spoon foid into your mouth so you can continue to paint?

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
Nice work, Chris!
BTW - I saw that FaceBook banned you for being an arms dealer!
Just when I thought things couldn't get any crazier!!!

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
I found out out I was an Arms Dealer too.
Those ghq T-64s can disrupt a village, maybe a country. I am glad to sell each tank for $5,000.00, for you guys a $1,000.00.
The algorithm is working overtime.
Heck, it is a smoothbore gun. Isn’t that obsolete?

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
So smoothbore guns are effective. My civil war SB musket doesn't shoot as far nor as accurate as the rifled muskets.
Guess the fins help on the APFSDS rounds.

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
It is more complicated than that. It has to do with muzzl velocity, shape, the "shoe," or sabot which carries the shot down the tube, and the resistance of the rifled barrel as opposed to smoothbore.
