I'm new here. I'm from Poland and I started a moddellers couple years ago. First was made from paper but now when I dont have so many tome i create models from stiren.
Hope you like enjoy my work.
Sorry for my bad english.

Okey, lets start...

First finished model from stiren was M-ATV from Panda Hobby. Model with so many bad precisions parts that I never seen. Even the straight lines in this model are not. Many work I must put inside this model to finish him.And patience ofcourse:)

This is how I start:
back of vechicule.
[a href="http://s980.photobucket.com/user/wojtek1984/media/P1160586_zpsedf1f915.jpg.html"][img src="http://i980.photobucket.com/albums/ae290/wojtek1984/P1160586_zpsedf1f915.jpg" style="max-width:100%;"][/a]
many of element I change using PE parts from other models sets.

Here is prof how Panda destroy my set:



This is my scratch with rear lights, made using a knife





More my PE sets:





And first time fixed backs without glue:




my way to do a cables




if you like my work next hours I show you next step. This what I'm really proud and never seen this kind of work in the world
see you later. Wojtek.

Hi Wojtec - so far, so good! - the cable is a nice detail! I've built a couple of the Panda kits too....you're right - they require much patience! My biggest problem with them is getting the tabs and slots to fit - every one needs cutting and filing! But look nice once done. Welcome and keep posting!
Cheers
Nick

As I promise, the hydraulic wires:

Many hours of work, all is my idea.













Also I bought a radio set from Blast. I copy them from resin and used in interior.
I now that copy of elements are illegal but in my country where I earn 300Euro per month is only one way to afford it.





Next chapter: interior

Cześć Kamil. Niestety, nie trafiłem najlepiej z moim miejscem pracy pomimo tego, ze moim szefem jest niemiec. Jestem z woj. podkarpackiego.

As long as you don't do this as a business and keep your copy for your own use, I don't see anything wrong in making copies of parts you purchased.

a bulk of crap
first of all, there is no copyright abuse or nothing illegal to make copies for personal use.

I must say, that now I understand, why in the USA are so popular polish jokes about dumb, crude louts. Its obvious, since they're able to read some enlightened sentences written by poles, like "i'm a thief, but i'm excused because of my minor earnings "

Grass:


Trees in difrent scales, here in 1/35:

















laser cut leaves:


Palms:




Small trees/grass:



Parts to camouflage vechicules:




Soon all parts available in Ebay




Now this what is a clue of this topic:
Interior. All build and created by me. Nothing more I buy to use in interior.


























In the same time I work on CROWS II

Nice work, do you have reference photos of this air-conditioned system? I supposed that this back support was for anti-IED system (DUKE system).

Congratulations and Merry X-MAS

Dobra robota, masz zdjęcia referencyjne tej klimatyzowanej systemu? Mam, że oparcie się na systemie anty-IED (system DUKE).

Gratulacje i Wesołych Świąt

The interior, the level of detail and cable management and painting is the best I've seen anyone do on an MRAP thus far. Outstanding.
