@sabredog – Michael,

Again, you’ve been a busy bee. Those are some impressive builds. I really like the CAV Dictator Battlemech. When did you post this build? Was it on another forum? Sure would like to see those 25mm fantasy miniatures.

Happy Holidays,
~ Eddy

Thanks everyone.

I will try and get some more miniature pics up once the new year kicks in a bit more.

I typically brush paint all my braille scale builds., though I have used the airbrush on several occasions.

G'day Michael. Nice collection of builds! I like the figures too.
Looking forward to seeing your Bishop, it's on my "to do" list.
Cheers,
Tim

Michael,

Looks like you've had a very productive year. I just loved seeing all the Airfix/JB kits again and the DUKW is an old favourite of mine. I still have one of those in the stash that was packed in the old plastic bag format. Your bases are always something that I'd like to strive for and as usual your monotone colour schemes are equally impressive. Can't wait to see some of your current builds.

Cheers,
Jan
