All about AFV and related military model making.
MiniArt brings us a lot of great models, Pz.Kpfw IV family is no excuse. In fact, MA covered almost any type of this famous Panzer. this one is no exception. In fact, this is a little bit odd one, this is MA’s Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf. J [...]
I bought this kit (Modelcollect, UA72068) second hand and therefore a few parts of the contents were missing.
PE parts, a few other small parts and the tracks.
I got the small PE set from Voyager Model (PE72005) to replace them, but the [...]
THE tank. Dragon's Tiger I production variants with Zimmerit application.
This is the Tamiya kit that’s been available for some time. This is the first 1/48 tank that I’ve built since the 1970s. In those days, Bandai made an excellent line of 1/48 armor. Unfortunately, they were also pricey. That put [...]

Soviet SU-76M
(Zvezda 6239)
I´ve planed to fix this project within two days- As a small New Year's challenge 😉
Didn't quite work, the processing of the base took too much time...
However, quite a nice kit and for it´s size quite good [...]
Panther Ausf.G form Vespid Models
(VS720008)
A kit that can only be recommended.
Fine and sharp details and the accuracy of fit is on the whole quite good.
Only the rollers and the swing arms had slight tolerances during assembly.
But the [...]
