So I got some FETs and a 2.4v SE battery in it, it's pretty fast and fun. Since I'm a lover not a fighter, I took the gun off. I'm just kidding, really I was just cutting weight. I don't need no gun, and I especially don't need no gun that don't work.

So then I filled the hole, and leveled the raised section that was under the turret. It looked pretty sleek and cool. I was thinking what I could do with it. I almost painted it white, and put a NASA logo on it, but then I thought, "If crazydave don't put a flame job on a tank, then who will? So I did it, I flamed out my tank.

I also detailed in all the little tools, gave it headlights, tailights, and side indicators, so it'd be street legal. ;)

:lol: You gotta give it up for Mel Brooks. History of the Wold Part II, one of my all time favorites.


Thanks guys, I'll tell ya's what I'm most proud of. See how the roof line is not flat? I think it's cool how I not only matched that angle, but kept the line down the center perfectly straight. You'd never know there was a raised area and a hole there.
