Hello all. New here, although I did post a couple of questions earlier on. Have had a interest in PT boats for years but never did much about it. Am now getting away from model railroading and back to military model building. Doing a couple of AFV before I start in on my Italeri PT-596. I'm sure I'll have questions, when I do. Want to build a version sans rockets.

I also want to build one or 2 RC PT boat models, as well. See my following question.

Oh, and some of us here can actually answer Armor questions as well in case you don't want to transfer back into the Armorama venue....of course only as it applies to modeling techniques that apply to both venues
