Bay Area Tankers - Battleday '98
Battle field setup includes building a 1:16 scale diorama, complete with hundreds of feet of CO2 lines for simulated explosions |
Many models, from 1:16 to 1:6 scale were on display |
Radar-scattering camo netting provided relief from the sweltering sun |
A kit-bashed U.S. halftrack cruised around before the battle |
Finally, the battle. The Shermans waited until 2pm before heading out of camp toward the enemy |
The King Tigers counter-attack, but a crazed King Tiger driver winds up in the ditch. |
I did'nt catch an explosion on film, so I'll recycle a 1996 explosion: |
