M-40 155mm SPG. Roco HO.

by Robert Royes on October 1, 2020 · in Armor · 5 ≡

A little bit of a cheat here, most of these old Roco's come partially assembled, where you add accessories and paint. The M40 had a 155mm gun built on a modified late Sherman chassis. Used at the end of WW 2 and in the Korean war. I had [...]

Airfix Alpha Jet 1/72

by Phil Steele on September 30, 2020 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

"Vati" Moelders' Hand-me-down

by Paul Nash on September 30, 2020 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

Using an old 1/24 scale Airfix Bf 109 E kit that I'd had lying aroound for too long, I’ve finally completed the build of this aircraft which I thought was interesting because of the back story. It’s been a frustrating build and is far [...]
