Tamiya 1:48 T-55

Another Tamiya quarter scale gem. I wanted a short term project so I did this OOB and also did limited the weathering. One error I ran into was that the instructions have you make the cables a little too long. The finished product is [...]

Valentine tank (North Africa 1942) , FUJIMI 1/76

This old Fujimi kit, was harder to build , than i was thinking. Enough details and very small parts and the most difficult stage was the tracks. This happens in all Fujimi kits, in 1/76 family. I am thinking to use this tank in a diorama. [...]

Another whimsical idea based on past experience with Fresian Holstien cattle...not while I was in a tank but on tractors and in farm trucks mostly. They are curious animals, they're also large and quite strong therefore difficult to move [...]
