Nice going everyone. This is turning out to be a busy campaign.
By my reckoning we have just 8 weeks left so stay busy

It is busy Pat with some fantastic builds underway. Makes me rather embarrassed by my simple OOB work.

Photography needs some work, but the build is coming along:

I am building this kit currently and the edges of the turret storage boxes have gaps. Yours appear to have the similar gaps. How are you planing on filling the gaps?
CA with baking soda?
CA gel style glue?
Or some other type of filler?

Hi Jeffrey, who were you addressing with your question? I normally use "liquid green stuff" for gaps.

Sorry for the confusion. It was regarding the Scimitar being built by MBR aka mmeier.

Getting there....on the home stretch with just the weathering to do:

I'll be Building the Sd.Kfz. 250/8 w/ 75mm K51 /L24

Not a lot to update. Most of the pictures were pretty bad.

I got the wheels painted and ready to mount.


The Stryker with base coat of green and wheels added.

Stryker is looking good Alex. That's a lot of wheels: how many different builds do you have on the go?

Sean, Good work look forward to seeing this in the flesh soon.
Irvin I look forward to seeing this take shape over the next 6weeks (It would take me six months lol)
Alex I see an M3 suspension there and some T-34? Wheels- you’ve have a regular production line going on there- nice work on the Stryker

Sean,
Thanks. I have ten projects actively orbiting the workbench at the moment. Most are campaign projects. I have a couple in waiting to begin work on. It's a lot but I tend to juggle multiple kits at any given time. And some go into deep orbit longer. For example, I haven't worked on my Ozelot for the Anti-Aircraft Campaign in months, but I masked it off last night and shot the black sections of the camo this morning. The Stryker was in deep orbit for a bit as well.

Pat,
Thanks. The T-34 wheels are for a SU-100 for the Stalin's Armor Campaign. The M3 suspension parts are for a M7 Priest for the Commonwealth Thunder Campaign. I'll jump around projects a bit, but I usually don't mix working on separate kits at the same time. I kind of pushed it for these three to play catch-up and get things back on schedule.

Nice progress all round . Here is what I've been up to so far. I've kept the interior simple as majority of it will be covered up

More to follow soon

Ooops I did not dowloaded the photos correctly . Here they are again





More to come

Here is my entry, AFV Club 1/35 British CVR(T) FV101 Scorpion.

Some progress on my Sd.Kfz 250/8

I am making very slow progress. Models primed and mostly assembled. It went together with less aggravation than I expected, although I did manage to fit the front stowage box (?) on upside down





This kit has two paint options. The desert one seems to be the most common one I've seen, so I decided to go with the Russia one. However, the instructions say it should be painted Dark Green (Humbrol 30). From the bit of research I've done this is wrong, so I went with grey. Would this be correct for early Barbarossa?

Also, I'm doing the Kubelwagen with the roof up and I hope I'm right in doing that a darker shade of grey than the body.

Small update







Want to finish gun & wheels this week ...

John;

Hi!

One of my fav 38(t) drivatives. ALWAYS fun, and looks like it is coming along!

I would like to suggest that you do a quick swipe or two with a sharp Xacto blade along the fire extinguisher and remove that longitudinal mold seam - it will, I think, be all-to-visible when you are done painting thise beast up!

Cheers!

Bob

Thanks Bob !!

Thanks to point it out, it was away in the box for almost 2 months, I didn't see it...

@john: Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hola Jose !!!

Thanks ! I finally got some free time at the workbench !!
I will try to finish this one before the deadline !

@john,
take it easy......
We have time......

Hi Guys, it has been a while since I posted and this is a sad post as I have to "drop" from the campaign. i was looking forward to finish the german 8 wheeler but circumstances means that I won't be able to complete it on time.
Thanks for all the things have learned and all the best to all that managed to finish the projecys!!
Mario

Hi Mario I am following your 8rad build in Armoured Cars!

Here is my build waiting for primer.

Primed and painted. First Tamiya Black Green, then Lifecolor Italian Green, followed by 2 varied coats of different mixes of the Italian Light Green and the flash green colour from the Lifecolour Olive Drab set.
