1/35th Scale MRAP MATV The kit from hell

by Rick Schad "The Pope of Plastic" on February 18, 2025 · in Armor · 15 ≡

Wow, this was some kind of kit. RFM apparently is actually a Trumpeter from what I can tell, the dead give away is the instructions, which made this kit a challenge to say the least. No real instructions on how to assemble the photoetched [...]

Little Sherman

by Rick Schad "The Pope of Plastic" on February 12, 2025 · in Armor · 6 ≡

I did this little Sherman tank as a build along live on my YouTube channel. My fans bought the kit and built along with me from start to finish in 8 hours! It was a lot of fun and I think they all learned some great basic modeling skills! [...]

1/32 scale AH1 Cobra

by Rick Schad "The Pope of Plastic" on August 26, 2024 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

Here is my latest, the 1/32 scale Air Cobra by ICM. ICM sent me this kit to build, I had never built an ICM kit before and I have to say it was great, only negative was the thin decals but other than that the molding is terrific, no flash, [...]

OV-1A Mohawk Clear Prop! 1/72

by James Brian Pruitt on December 27, 2023 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

Continuing on a theme of Army fixed wing aircraft in Vietnam, I selected this 1/72 scale Clear Prop model of the low-level, reconnaissance Mohawk. Requirements came from the US Army and its cockpit canopy is all utilitarian, looking a [...]

by Sandre Cyrre Lima on April 6, 2022 · in Armor · 7 ≡

This was an attempt to show a vignette with one of the most iconic military vehicles :the M113. The M113 family was born in 1956, being the first APC made of aluminum. It was developed by FMC (Food Machinery Corporation) and was [...]

1/35 M4A3E8 Sherman Easy Eight by Tamiya

by Ko Lok Kan, Arthur on February 24, 2022 · in Armor · 13 ≡

It’s done! This is the Tamiya M4A3E8 Sherman Easy Eight (European Theater) in 1/35 scale. First of all, this is another great kit by Tamiya. There’s really no problem to build smoothly. The rubber tracks are good too. but personally [...]

1/35 AFV Club M-24 Chaffe

by Mark P Hartig on February 5, 2022 · in Armor · 13 ≡

This one dates back to 2018 when the AFV Club offering was still pretty new. The kit is supposed to give you the option of an articulating suspension but bad engineering makes this very hard to achieve; I did not invest the time needed to [...]

The tough cows

by Mark P Hartig on January 11, 2022 · in Armor · 13 ≡

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 [...]

Who's tired of C-Rations?

by Mark P Hartig on January 11, 2022 · in Armor · 11 ≡

This dates from late 2013, an idea that came to me out of the blue one day The Academy 1/35 M-18 used, it gave me a decent base and assembled well. It was upgraded with a Verlinden interior set and ModelKasten workable tracks. The interior [...]
