News on 31st March - Dragon has got me waiting for this little beauty- a late model Stug IV. More details and other releases in this range on Dragon's website. More on this one soon as I've got mine!
I'm Treadhead and this is my corner of the web - and for once its not all about German armour... Surfing the web it sometimes seems if it's not German or Sherman it doesn't get a look in. So this is my small contribution towards setting it straight. 
You'll find articles on making plastic models of tanks - a lot on the Russian T-34, but others too, including the Sherman. There are reviews of some new and some old kits, simple kit conversions I've done - 'cos I don't pretend to be an expert, and simple is more fun.

I've also got some photos of the real thing from my collection... I've tried to concentrate on the views that modellers need - detail and small fittings - many of them of actual running vehicles.

Seen at SMW show Telford UK

A Games Workshop Predator hiding in an Iraqi themed line up...

Wonder how many people thought it was a regular afv..?

There are some hints and tips from fellow modellers, as well as some I've learned down the years. We've got some humour so we don't take ourselves too seriously, and there's a few photos of models - both mine and fellow modellers.

No site is complete without a page or two of  links - the ones below are my real favourites, but as the list grows larger by the week they are all on another page...
Armourama.com - My homepage on the net
Hannants - In my opinion the best mail order shop in the world - No I don't get a discount for plugging them... Must work on that.
Calibre 35's website
The big one, Scalemodelindex.com - If you only have room for one link this has to be it...
