Why isn’t it pink John…. Joooohn…. we had a deal! Pink, John! Piiiink! 😉
@johnlyons – can I just say THANK YOU – THANK YOU – THANK YOU for painting the Abrams in Desert Storm colors. I’ve noticed a few people doing Team Yankee armies in “Desert Storm” themes. I haven’t done an Abrams in this scale as of yet, my force was US Marine-themed and we were still using the M-60A1 with ERA panels, unfortunately. Great call on the color – 1990/91 desert colors were very inconsistent but much darker and more yellow than we tend to see later in 2001 Enduring Freedom and 2003 Iraqi Freedom. The USMC vehicles were all shipped… Read more »
Nice job There James and nice to see your still with us, though to be fair, I haven’t been keeping up with much of stuff in lockdown as have actually been furiously hobbying, Including doing all My British(or Mercanary East Riding Yeomanry for my Alt hist) and my Germans(Mallots Marauders) and Soviets (vogans) for above.
Indeed, @bobcockayne – those alternate history armies you’ve been working on are great! I’ve been following / supporting that project for some time.
I’m actually on the site almost every day … just usually in the Projects.

Glad to hear you’re doing well, staying safe, and keeping busy!
I was till went back to work, its a hospital, I work on computers solely but am to low on the food chain to be allowed to work from home and social distancing here is a joke, they think I’m mad when I talk about NBC kit and what we had to go through back in the forces.
great work john the paintwork looks fab.
@sundancer I’m sorry 😉 Do not worry. My pink paints have been getting use, stay tuned.
@oriskany I love seeing your extra info coming in! Glad I seemed to go in the right direction. And I had only recently learned how the fume extractor functioned. I knew what it did, but not -how- it did it 😀
OMG @amachan WE HAVE A SITUATION! They took John! XD
Have they replaced him with a better, pinkier John? Otherwise, it’s reason to panic. ?
Always glad to see old school tank action on the site, @johnlyons. Not really any “new” information, bust confirming what you’ve already said in the video. There’s only one “Tank God” after all!
– Sincerely, a “Tank Brigadier” at best. 😀 😀 😀
Oh man, typos in that reply and too late to edit them.
What I meant to say was that “I didn’t really add any extra info, only confirmed embellished what you’d already reviewed.”
Who’s been watching the Tank museum Tank Chats, @johnlyons? Fume extractors, from the knowledge of the great David Willey and his cardboard tube mock ups me thinks ??
Great tutorial on the M1
I watched that, and Scottish Koala who did a great explanation on fume extractors too 😀
Another great tutorial John 🙂 ty 🙂 !
may think about a 3colors camo tutorial sometimes? I would really love it… maybe with a Leopard or Centurion tank as subject…
