My latest efforts - I'm concentrating on WW11 Allied armour (just wish there was more stuff to choose)

Here's Hasegawa's Chaffee. A very old kit but I'm really pleased with it. Painted in Vallejo OD (which to me is a little too brown), tarps are made from milliput. Let me know what you think











Also an M36 Jackson which is 'nearly' finished.
This is the Extra-tech 'extra-kit' with lots of tiny PE and an interior. It's kind of a great kit because of all the added bits - but unfortunatley the 'base' is still just an 'average' model - certainly compared to DML's 1/72 stuff.
Anyway a couple of pics. This one painted with a mix (10:6) of vallejo OD and Brown violet

Still a fair bit of weathering work to do especially to the running gear





As ever any comments (especially constructive criticism) most welcome

Thanks for posting your pics. May I suggest one improvement? The M36 GMC's driver's hatch, when opened, splayed to the front, not just off to the side.

Have a look at this Achilles

Hi

these are good looking pair of models, & the way you have painted the interior detail on that Jackson is great, they could easily be mistaken for a larger scale, my only complaint is they are not axis or soviet vehicles

cheers
Neil
