Hi, i'm Simon from Austria
I got actively back into the hobby in 2021.
Modeling has been a part of my life since I left Lego.
In between there were always a few breaks and a few years in the fantasy tabletop scene, but it never let go of me.
Before that I worked in 1/35 scale and after I got back I learned to love the 72nd scale.
Inspired by the modeler Sergey Golikov.
M109A7 Paladin Self- Propelled Howitzer
(Foeart No. 2002)
I like the design of the new generation M109 howitzer, so I chose this kit for a "quick project".

Flakpanzer on E-75 Standardpanzer chassis. 5,5cm Zwillingsflak- Gerät 58, Rheinmetall turret.
For this project i´ve used Modelcollect´s UA72019 kit.

The latter IS-1 was [...]
Armory's VK 72.01(K)
Another paper tank/ what- if project of mine.
As far as I have learned, only a scale wood model was made by Krupp and no documents may have survived.
Design from 1942 for a 72 ton class vehicle.
...however, I have to [...]
J.M.S.D.F. DDG-174 Kirishima
By Hasegwa (30045, Hyper Detail) in 1/700 scale.
My first experience with Hasegawa kits, 1/700 scale, ships and the ocean 😄
Some things happened durung processing, some time passed by, but in the end I'm [...]
E-50 tank in an alternative variant design.
My idea behind it was to create a slight departure from the previously known E-50/ 75 designs and incorporated elements of Panther and Panther II.
I reduced the original tracks width and used [...]
My anti aircraft missile "Rheintochter1" on E-75 carrier.
(What- if)
(Modelcollect UA72092)
One of the almost infinite model variants of Modelcollect with their pro´s and contras.

M1124 MaxxPro MRAP Vehicle
This Galaxy Hobby kit (GH72A03) is quite nice i´d say.
It offers a lot of beautiful things, but also has negative sides.
There are many pinmarks to remove (fortunately, most of them are not visible or difficult [...]
