Despite the more than occasional deviation, I mostly build armour, from WW2 to modern.

Testing out the new lightbox

Bought one of those lightboxes that you can use to take pictures of smallish objects with proper lighting, so I thought I'd give it a try.

M1025 HMMV

This is the Tamiya M1025, finished as a USMC vehicle during the 1991 Gulf War.

Bundeswehr Leopard 1a4

Hi all, This is the Meng Leopard 1a4, built straight out the box. The model will soon receive a couple of crew members to populate the model.

Work in progress on a Bocage base for the Tamiya Marder 1.

At the moment I'm working on the Tamiya Marder 1 and I'm putting it on a small diorama base, since I like showing these vehicles in their natural habitats. The model, figures and the base are not finished yet, but here are some in progress [...]

Tamiya AMX-13, French army

Airfix 1/72 A-4B Skyhawk, VA-15 Valions, USS Intrepid, Tonkin Gulf 1967

Hi all, In order to keep the illusion going for the kids, I always purchase gifts for my wife and myself to put under the tree with their gifts around Christmas. For myself I usually just get something cheap and so this year I bought the [...]
