One more pic
Hi, haven't finished much lately so this little project to paint was a good change. It's an old 1/48 Bandai turret, Total War Miniatures figure, world war II productions track, Archer decal, Tamiya jerry can, scrap PE. Painted with Vallejo and Mig pigments. Thanks to Rob Ferrera (?) for his inspirational wrecks

Ah that's what I like seeing. Very nice work on the turret and of course the rest. I haven't tried 1/48 scale, too small for me, but you did a nice job on the turret painting.
Nice to hear I was inspirational, thanks man.
Hope to see more from you soon.

Very well done, even more impressive in 1/48 scale!
I have a number of turrets/interior components in my parts box that are waiting the similar faith - thanks for inspiring me to put them to good use...
Once again - very well done!

Nice control for 1/48th scale.
The composition is straight from a WWII book. Nice job, must feel good to finish one up.

Hi guys, thanks so much for your support!
Is the perception of 1/48 really too small?: 1/48th scale is what, a 1/3 smaller then 1/35?
A little less small detail parts then 1/35 and a few more detail then 1/72.

I'm a bit late to the party but I must say ... OUTSTANDING! Back in the 70's the 1/48 scale Bandai kits were all the rage, some interior detail and clean castings. You've done a great job on the figure as well, I had to go back and check the scale as he appears to be 1/35 scale figure. Well done on this one mate, well done indeed!
