Yes,it must be it. T-34 and Willys hornes look almost the same, so it must be so

I'm not particulary fond with half track vehicles, but I can say that, as usual, you're doing a great job indeed Gary

Hello Mauro,

Im happy you stopped by. I was thinking it was a horn but i wasnt sure. i thought id find out before i hollow out the center to resemble a real horn. Thanks man!

Well its late and once again im bored. Im at a bit of a stand still till i get a little more info. I though id snap a couple pics of my messy bench. I usually keep it more tidy than this so for me, its messy.


Ill talk at you guy tomorrow.

Gary

MESSY?!!



You can't have seen mine!! THAT'S A REALLY MESSY BENCH!!



Cheers

Looks like organized chaos to me, and certainly not messy at all! Everyone works with their own pattern and pace. I like my paint stored away, most here like it right in front of them.

I like having inspiration and motivation (not that I need it) around me and in front of my work area.

I have just recently switched to natural lighting and daytime type lamps that really make a huge difference in the quality of the work area.

Maybe one day my detailing will be on par with yours Gary! I'm sure you'll be fine with the cement you used. I would have chosen a safer bet with a CA or my usual Ambroid Pro Weld. It's just that I have had some bad experiences with the thinner types of adhesives.

I have the same silver clip-on desk light as Gary. Woot!

gary this one is turning out nice.

Hi Gentlemen,

Well, I guess its not too messy, its just messy compaired to how i usually keep it. It may just be that im really haveing fun with this build.

Jesse - That light was a qwik fix when my other light that goes with the base, broke. The temp works good but it gets hot as heck and i keep burning my forehead. Not that i have anything to loose there.

Thanks fellas!

Gary

Hi Gary,

Great build, but STOP THE DRILLING!!!!
It's a jack (for light vehicles)

OOOH Peter! I just finished drilling 2 minutes ago! Hey man, thanks for letting me know before i glued to the fender. It will be easy to fill. Thats hilarious to me! Had i looked at my thread 3 min. earlier i would have not drilled. Thanks Peter!

Gary

Hi all,

Small update. Have attatched one fender with tools. The exhaust cover doesnt fit just right so ill need to adjust. Gonna start rounding up all my goodies im takeing to the IMPS Scalefest 2012 model show in the morning. I may work on the Greif some later this evening. well see.

Thanks for looking.

Gary

Sorry, I was working (and actually not allowed on the web ). Hope you didn't do any irreversible damage...
And the little thingy in front of the shovelis not a strangely placed rear view mirror, but a turn indicator (a mistake I made once)

BTW, your bench is not messy, compared to mine.
Peter

Hi Peter,

I had just finished drilling out the hole for the "horn" When i saw your post that it was a jack, i imediately filled it in and all is well.

Gary

Looking good there Gary, hope the interior turned out well too!

Guys, if it isn't a little bit messy you're not doing anything worth while. Some of those pictures look like you guys have been hard at it!


So, is my area "messy"?











~ Jeff

Hey Jeff S.,

I like your little cozy spot there. Messy? no. Cool? YES!
I would like to the rest of your modeling area you have described before.

Gary

Looking good,watching you build this 250/3 has made me drag out my old kit from the stash and start building it,mine is getting changed into a 253,I am also building the dml 250/3 kit and this will become rommels wagon

Hey Gary B.,

Maybe a new thread on that soon as to not hi-jack your fine thread on the "GREIF"? Really looking forward to seeing some paint on this thing (finally) and hope you were successful at the show yesterday?

Still on the fence as to getting my own 250 kit, but maybe next month. Since there is such a lull on building during the Campaign time I went back to the 1/16 Panther.








~ Jeff

Hi All,

Glenn - I would really like to see all that come together. Sounds cool and fun!

Jeff S. - I dont mind at all if you want to show us your work area. I for one want to see it.
I still have a ways to go before paint but its getting close.
As for the show, yes i had a great day! Check this out!


And i scored this T-90 at the vendor area.


I know it looks like im tooting my own horn, well i am! Because its the best ive done at model shows to date.

Man i really like to see that 1/16th Panther move a head. Thats a sweet build.

Gary

Toot that horn some more Gary and show us pics of the models that won all that plunder.

Nice hual of gongs my friend! Congraulations.

Oh WOW!!! A free T-90? Sweet!!

What? No pictures of you standing on the podium with your medals around your neck and holding up your plaque!

So, what brought home all the medals?








~ Jeff

Thanks guys! It was a day of days in the modeling world for me. The T-90 wasnt free, i had to pay for that. I had limited funds and i chose it. I haggled him from $45.00 to $35.00 which is probly the right price for it, i just didnt have to pay for shipping so i jumped on it. I wish i had about 300 bucks there as the vendor area was huge! Made my mouth water and they had Squadron open house as well. As far as what i got the medals for, heres a list:

Gold - T-62, 10.5cm "StuH"42 G., 1/16th Alpine German Officer.

Siver - T-34/76 Factory 112, Studebaker US6

Bronze - Staghound Mk1.

And Best Figure award - German Officer.

As far a pictures of me with awards, youll have to see them on the IMPS web site when the post. Ill be the good looking one!

I can post pics of each model here if you want to see them. Let me know for sure if you guys do.

Gary

Hi Gary,

That is an awesome achivement all those gongs!! I bet by the end the master of ceremonies was saying but what theirs more!!!

Con grats & very well deserved!!

Cheers mike

I would love to see the StuH, I love those types of tanks
And congrats for all your awards, you must know a thing or two about this stuff

-Conor

Congratulations Gary!

I'm especially glad your T-62 grabbed a gold. That was an epic build log to follow. I vote for pics of the award winners... and a T-90 build log!

Nate
