Instructions are often a challenge with these smaller outfits. Adds to the challenge, right?

Good luck!

Build phase of my Maquette T-34/85 is complete:


This is such a dog of a kit--really makes me appreciate the big name producers. Good think the brass barrel didn't set me back more than a few bucks.

Now just have to wait for the weather to warm back up so I can get some primer on this.

A few update

Primer and base coat of Russian Green laid down:

After some weeks this due to the winter and not enough daily sun still the decals miraculously looked better,



End these where not bad,.. the end result






thanks

Pretty nice, Jan! Your metallic finish is fantastic! You also did great with the antenna!

Do you think spraying a very translucent yellow-amber filter might blend the decal in with the rest of the finish? I think it would create a somewhat oily appearance.

Hi guys... here is an update on my oTaki bf 109.

Mark, that could be it, just blend it in the silver with yellow-amber i think i will try it, thanks
The antenna is a stretched sprue from Airfix plastic, i find that better working due to it's soffness

Nice progress on the builds!

Finally got around to do some work on my Mig-21. Got the canopy installed and primed.


Thanks for looking

So after much neglect I've made a little progress with the PCM Hurricane I've got the top camo done I used German olive green for the dark olive and NATO Black for the black(Green base). I'm in the midst of debating what paint to use for the bottom camo. I'm leaning heavily towards RLM65 quite possibly Vallejo or Aeromaster. Since Finland was at the time allied with Germany and I think the Hurricanes were acquired from them they may well have used Luftwaffe colour equivalents. (That's my theory and I'm sticking with it!)

Here are some pics to show you the progress so far.

Nice camo, Chris. Looking great!

Thanks Mark! Just sorting out the rest of the colours needed to finish it off. Should look a million bucks when finished. (Says he modestly!)

I am in for this campaign. I am going with two infantry units from the game Dust Tactics. The figures are made by Dust Studios. So definitely one of the other guys.

The figures come already build, but I have take them back apart to clean mold lines and fixed some scenery on the bases.

Next is a base coat and painting can begin.

Interesting addition to the campaign. Looking forward to seeing those painted.

Thanks, Mark.

More to follow when I really get started in a few weeks.

Some progress on my figures. Basic colors are on and the white metal body armor has been scratched to simulate wear in the city fighting.

Next are the washes and highlights.

More to follow

Those look cool!

Hi mates,
I'm joining in the fun with that kit from Williams:

The Northrop Gamma




Probably try the NC-1375 of TWA

BTW much cool stuff already on your benches and some interesting subjects!

Thanks, Mark. They are cool little minis.

Peter, That is definitely something out of the ordinary. Very unique looking plane.

Well I pulled my Other guy kit out of the stash yesterday

Its from Master Box. Does anyone know who's molds they use? There are no marking or part numbers on the spruce

OOPs this is the wrong campaign I am building a different Master box Kit for this campaign

As far as I know, they are their own molds, I've built a couple of their 1/72 tanks, and they didn't have numbered sprues either

Got a little further this longer weekend, we have Labour Day on 1st of May today




The kit needs some putty, filling etc., but that depends on the version you wanna build (7 Options!). As I build a TWA mail plane, I had to close up the front cockpit with scratch parts. Of course that means some filling
Have fun, mates

Hi Guys, here is my entry, going for a simple setting.

My modeling skills are slowly improving, although you can't tell from my photography, which un-like a fine wine, is not improving with age:





Once I get back from travelling next week, I'll mount the running gear and call this one done!

Your washes are in great shape ,I'm sure the photography will catch up
