Despite the more than occasional deviation, I mostly build armour, from WW2 to modern.
I needed a break from a number of more involved projects I was working on, so I decided to slap some paint on something I had never built before: a 1/3 scale firearm, in this case the Mk.18 Mod 0 CQBR by Trumpeter.
Quick and fun build, fun [...]
