Despite the more than occasional deviation, I mostly build armour, from WW2 to modern.
Hi all,
I started many more projects (some of which are close to the finish line), but these are the ones I finished in 2024.
Canadian army Leopard C2
Bundeswehr Leopard 1A5
US army M31
British army Ferret Mk.2
Galactic Empire Death Star [...]
I picked up the Tamiya Panzer 1b a week ago at a show. In just a few sessions it was built and painted to this point. It will be added to a small base, so some extra weathering will be done to make it fit the base.
This is the Takom M47, finished as a tank from the Escola Prática de Cavalaria, Exército Português, in Santarém, Portugal.
Hi all,
This is the Meng Models kit of the Leopard 1A3. For once I went for only light weathering.
Hi all,
This is the Takom kit of the Leopard 1A5 in Bundeswehr service. The kit was an easy build, though it was a strange choice to not include any placement nubs, dimples or markings for the mounting bosses for the skirt armor around the [...]
I posted some in progress shots of this model recently, and I am now at the point where I am happy to add it to the cabinet. Thanks for looking!
I thought I'd get out of my comfort zone and try my hand at two things that I don't often do: Groundwork with a lot of foliage and larger scale figures.
Since I didn't want to ruin an expensive resin figure, I picked up the good ol' [...]
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 [...]
After reading another book on the Guadalcanal campaign, I finally decided to finish this model I had sitting on the shelf about 70% complete. It's a Wildcat from VMF-223 in 1942, flying from Henderson Field, Guadalcanal, the famous Cactus [...]
This is the Takom kit of the early StuG G. Added some Tamiya figures and some stowage to liven the thing up. Fun and easy build.
