T-28 heavy tank – USSR 1941

This is the Trumpeter kit in 1/72, a very good one. This T-28 is the late version and saw action in the first months of 'Operation Barbarossa'.

1/35th Leopard Line Up

Here is a line up of 1/35th Leopards from various manufacturers. The 1 A1 is the old Tamiya kit. I'm going to replace it soon with the new mould Revell kit. The 1 A4 again is Tamiya. Revell (old mould) provides the Leopard 1 A5A5. This [...]

Tamiya 1/35 Panther G and Miniart Base

1/35 Chieftain Mk 10 Converted From Tamiya

MENG MERKAVA Mk.4

I decided to try my hand at something different so I got myself a 1/35 tank. I couldn't believe it when I opened the box, 1000 parts! I've added metal tracks and some wires and aerials, otherwise it's out of the box. Hope you like it.
