If we needed any more proof that 2019 might be the year of the Sherman, Rye Field Model (RFM) just delivered it. The latest announcement in their line of 1/35 tanks covers the M4A3E8 Sherman, the last major variant of this vehicle. So lets have[...]

I must admit that I just about scrapped the idea of the interior during this latest phase. First the torsion bars are much more fiddly than Dragons, getting everything to line up was a bit of a bear. I used toothpicks, which worked well. Next[...]

Ok, so every year when my company gives us our bonus, I choose a kit I would normally not spend the money on, a pat on the back for surviving another year (actually I love my company, so surviving is easy). In the past I have gotten 1/32 Tamiya[...]
