As I have promised a friend, it's the Stuart Tank first before the Ratel.

Here is the start of my scratch build of a pair of 1/35 Stuart Tank with removable top and interior detail.

I'm gonna follow this one with great interest. The Stuart has always been one of my favorites.

The Stuart has always been my favorite tank since I was a young tenderfoot. It caught my fancy through the DC comics, Haunted tank. It was about a crew who serve don a Stuart tank haunted by the ghost of General Jeb Stuart. Today it would not be politically correct, since they flew the Stars and Bars on their antenna. https://www.google.com/search?q=dc+c...w=1360&bih=633

A great return to the ole "Haunted Tank". This was a comic back in the 60's of a stuart tank commanded by a descendant of Jeb Stuart and haunted by the ghost of Jeb Stuart. And featured an older model stuart tank. great work so far!

I'm lost guys Don't seem to have encountered those comics stories during my childhood days. Anyone have a spare copy?
