Vote me for the Grayhound!!
but do one version in 1:35, OK?
My late uncle served in the XII Manitoba Dragoons in NW Europe during the Last Big Global Beef , using the Canadian-built Chevy version of the Grayhound (Staghound as the Brits/Cdns called it, I believe!!) Jim

Yes I was planing on around that scale or possibly bigger like 1/25.
I forgot to mention one other build. 1/36 scale WW2 soldier figurines for dioramas. These pictures are of a U.S. Army Private I've also done a German Wehrmacht Private I would probably do officers next.

Info:
so far it looks like the M8 has it.
thought it would be nice if I gave you all some info about the things i'm planing on designing/building. first is the WWI German Linke-Hofmann R.I a first attempt at stealth technology. Linke-Hofmann R.I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Next the Monster 800mm Schwerer Gustav Railway Gun Schwerer Gustav - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A couple videos Schwerer Gustav 800mm 1942 - YouTube Worlds biggest gun - YouTube You're probably wondering Card Airsoft Weapons is. A few years ago I had bought Trent's 1/1 42 Thompson Submachine gun Paper Model 1/1 42 Thompson Submachine gun Paper Model - ECardmodels.com Shop - Downloadable models and crafts and an Idea struck me. I wonder if their is a way to turn this into a airsoft gun so after months (maybe years) of innovation I believe I have something that will work but I'm going to test it on something easier to build Like a M1911 colt. P.S. I also have Ideas of grenades, RPGs and bazookas. to be continued...

The Grayhound sounds neat.
Also the engines, one in particular I would like to see would be a Ranger 6 cylinder inline. Realize it was not one of the biggie, but a lot of civil ac used it....AND....it was used in some early 50's dragsters, speed boats and sprint cars. Think one even ran in the 500. If it was in 25th scale the rat rod guys would go beseark over it. |

The Dora Railgun would be cool, and as a WoT-gamer, a T-95 Tank Destroyer sounds nice too...

Good choice this is the first time I've heard of the the T-95 Tank Destroyer does look like something you don't wan't to get in a fight with. Especially with it's huge 105mm gun and 12 in thick armor and because of its weight it had to have four tracks. But its top speed was only 8 MPH I'm also wanting to do the M10, M18 and the Medium/Heavy Tank M26 Pershing these past few days I been trying to get some pictures and stuff on the M8 and can't find much on the undercarriage so I try to do my best on that as well. M8 Greyhound - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia the M8 used mainly for recon by british and american troops in WW2 and as of 2006 is still is service in third world counties. It has very thin armor just enough to withstand 50 cal fire so an and anti tank mine would maul these vehicles hulls (which was only .12 in [3 mm] thick). the crews of WW2 solved this problem by lining the floor of the crew compartment with sandbags. its main armament was a M6 37mm and also carries a .30 cal and an optional .50 cal. the m8 has a top speed of 56 mph.
