Takom Blitz Panzer III N 1/35

by Mark P Hartig on December 11, 2022 · in Armor — 7 Comments

This one gave me trouble all the way from start to finish. The model itself was very nicely molded, sharp and crisp with well hidden ejector pin marks and small sprue gates. It was also rather ill fitting and required a fair bit of drill [...]

Scharnhorst, 1943, Dragon Smart Kit

by Robert McDowell on November 3, 2022 · in Ships — 8 Comments

This submission is a mid-build evaluation of Dragon's 1/350 Scharnhorst 1943 [Smart Kit]. Many others have submitted comprehensive and helpful reviews on this kit and its predecessor, Scharnhorst 1940. This is a nit-picky submission, and [...]

1/48 ICM Do-17Z German Light Bomber

by David Kopielski on July 22, 2022 · in Aviation — 7 Comments

This is the ICM 1/47 D0-17Z-2 German Light Bomber. I used Eduard’s LOOK instrument panel as the only add-on to this build. The decals worked very well and the clear parts fit perfectly. This was a fun build of the German light bomber [...]

Junkers JU-87B-2 S1+GK Stuka 1/48 Airfix

by Keith Z on February 11, 2022 · in Aviation — 19 Comments

Hey all. I just wrapped up this build on the JU-87 Stuka flown in Derna, Libya (North Africa) during the summer of 1941. This Airfix kit came together beautifully, with only a few minor hiccups. I would highly recommend it to anyone [...]

Trumpeter Sd.Kfz.8 Gepanzerte with Tamiya Flak 36/37 1/35

by Mark P Hartig on January 12, 2022 · in Diorama — 6 Comments

This was a project that occupied the first six months of 2020 and was part of a remeberance group build. I'm not all that fond of doing large dioramas like this since after awhile it begins to feel like a job rather than a hobby but this [...]

The mouse that roared

by Mark P Hartig on January 2, 2022 · in Armor — 14 Comments

Dragon's 1/35 Tiger II, done in 2014. I recall this kit being quite un-Dragonish as the instructions were mistake free and clear. The fit was superb, and the Magic Track links were a perfect friction fit that made assembly quite [...]

Tamiya Marder III 1/35

by Mark P Hartig on December 18, 2021 · in Armor — 12 Comments

I suppose I ought to show the item I chose for the My Stuff picture. The Tammy Marder III, a delightful little kit that assembles very well as most by this manufacturer do. Built 100% OOB, the model was finished in Model Masters acrylic [...]

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

by Jay Biga on August 27, 2021 · in Armor — 14 Comments

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 [...]

Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. J

by Kursat Kaan Kerimoglu on February 4, 2021 · in Armor — 13 Comments

Although this German made tank does not see much war, it is one of the iconic tanks thanks to computer games. I painted this tank in solid yellow. I preferred Mission Models MMP011 Dunkelgelb RAL 7028 to paint the model. I hope you like [...]

Italeri 1/72 Ju-188 E1

by Greg Kittinger on October 15, 2020 · in Aviation — 21 Comments

One of the members in our club recently built the Dragon 1/48 Ju-188 E1, and it inspired me to pull out the old Italeri A/E kit I had in the stash. It was a pretty low-parts-count kit, so thought it might be a fairly quick build, but [...]
