Tamiya, 1/35, M8 Howitzer Motor Carriage

Hi guys, another Coronavirus project has came to it's end? This time it's a 40 years old model by Tamiya: M8 Howitzer Motor Carriage, in 1/35 scale. Colors and weathering effects by Ammo-mig, Tamiya and AK. Have a great day!

This is my third completion while under social distancing lockdown in California and my second "no frills' project (from my stash, no aftermarket stuff , no exotic weathering or damaging. Just build and paint). Its nearly OOB. I used [...]

Schwimmwagan 1/48th

Seeing all the fun vehicles in 1/35th we are very fortunate that a company like Tamiya decided to start doing the same in 1/48 for those of us that prefer that scale. This is Tamiya's Schwimmwagan, and it is a fun easy build that with a [...]

Video: Tamiya Extra Thin Cement as Decal Solvent ?!?!

In this video, I'm going to be showing you a weird trick I recently learned about using Tamiya cement on your decals to help them better adhere to the surface. A huge thanks and shout out to "On the Bench" podcast, for showing [...]

Grumman Martlet 11 (Wildcat) ,Tamiya ,1/48

This is the Tamiya kit finished in decals from Hannants "Yanks with roundels part 2". The kit was a joy to build which it would be coming from Tamiya , I wouldn't expect anything else really . Fit was great ,the build process was [...]

skyraider 1/48

this kit is from tamiya, as always they did a big job. The details are really great but without riveting. A pilot is included in the kit, but I only keep the pilot helmet. Hope you will like the weathering on it and the whole result too. [...]
