All about AFV and related military model making.
Well here's the latest instalment of the work on my Chieftain Mk10. I've put together and weathered the tracks before final fitting. I used the Vallejo Air acrylic wheel and track set. For the base colour I used Halfords red primer. I then [...]
These Tamiya 1/48 armor kits are always a pleasure to build. Imagine... everything fits! Only additions are RB & Aber barrels, a few Hauler P-E bits and Fruilmodel tracks (which did add a few days of sore fingers).
It has been too long since my previous post...I've been busy working on other aspects of life. And now here are the more pictures I took on the Sho't Kal build.
While I'm taking shots of details, I found out that I didn't really do much on [...]

Here are thress 1/35 scale models that I have built. The Stryker ATGM and the LAV III were heavily modified and scratch built using the Trumper Styker kits as the basis. At the time I built them, there were no kit availble of these [...]
Maybe the French thought they would have air supremacy.
Anyway, I finally finished up my 1/35 Somua S35 from Tamiya after having some bad luck with the camouflage on the turret. My original black outlines ran like mascara in the rain when [...]
