Official nomination for TOTM MARS

I throwing this out there and think its one hell of a tank. This used to be popular on the home forum and I am going to Revive it this year. The winner will have to do a little work,,,system break down,livestock, photos,a little about them in the hobby.

Starting with my vote for TOTM


Tom Blevins


So lets get 20 yes votes for Tom. I am going to start an official thread in the MARS forum and next month will be a new nominee.

I think you should post some pics of his tank on this thread so the new people like me can see it.

I vote for Tom, not his tank. I haven't seen his tank, but he is real nice guy that helped my daughter and I.
