The “new guy” first time post! As a former Marine myself I thought I’d pay homage to my Desert Storm brothers with this little dio. This project contained a ton of firsts especially since I’ve only been back in the hobby for about a year now. Us[...]

Stalingrad Revisited

in Figures — 14 Comments

In Headlines three years ago, nearly to the week, I posted this Jeff Shiu Miniatures 120mm resin figure of a German Grenadier at Stalingrad; I was never happy with the painting. Since then, my figure painting skills have improved somewhat, and[...]

My dear son, 3 years old, is big fan of the movie "Planes", so I have seen it a couple of hundreds of times. When I proposed my kid to build a "Skipper Riley" F4U he jumped of joy, so it had to be done. As always, I build to test things. [...]

This Pacific-themed diorama includes both kit- and scratch-built items. The aircraft is Tamiya's 1/32 Zero. It's made two appearances here in previous incarnations; from its present state, this is likely the last. The Marine figures are 1/35 re[...]

in Figures — 25 Comments

This sculpt, marketed as "Savage Horn" by Spanish company Nocturna, consists of twelve finely cast pieces of grey resin. There's little flash in evidence, but as some pieces are quite small a fine-toothed saw is required to remove them from th[...]

Continuing the recent figure-painting theme, this is the last in my current series of larger scale resin figures, in this case, a 120mm (1/16) German Grenadier sculpted by Jeff Shiu (Jeff Shiu Minatures). The only addition has been the weapon's [...]
