  1. My Revell 1/32 Arado Ar196A-3 takes its place this morning as an official member of my Basement Air Force. I'll miss it but the kit comes highly recommended!
  2. Thanks Kevin.
  3. Absolutely one of my most favorite armor builds!! Tamiya 1/35 King Tiger Ambush Diorama! This was great fun!!!
  4. Yeah it takes up a bit of shelve space that’s for sure!
  5. I actually got to see a real V-2 and V-1 while visiting Jeroen in 2015z
  6. Thanks Bomber!
  7. My air brush and a long air hose on a month keeps the dust free!!
  8. Takom 1/35 Hanomag SS100, Transport Trailer and V-2 Rocket. Beautifully engineered kit, perfect fit and great fun it comes highly recommended.
  9. Just finished a M60A1 Battle Tank with Reactive Armor which is part of a diorama depicting a captured Iranian tank and its Iraqi crew surrendering to US Forces as they entered Baghdad!

  10. This morning with the help of some warm water and several stiff bristle brushes I began the technique of removing some of the XF-2 Flat White which recreates the wear you’d see in the winter white wash camouflage as the crew moved around the outside of the upper hull and turret either entering or exiting to Churchill, performing maintenance, loading ammunition etc. Hope I captured the technique?
  11. Began the fiddly work of assembling the gun mount in step 2. I’m trying to address any seam lines as did the builder in the YouTube videos I posted. I was going to drill out the 50cal barrels but sadly I don’t hand a pin drill bit that small.
  12. Oh cool!! I had no idea. Maybe I’ll enter once I return from our Florida RV trip in March!!
  13. I’ve have that kit also. Love the dozer blade!
  14. Thanks so much. It was a fun build.
  15. Takom 1/35 M60A1 (Complete 2/5/2021) Although the support brackets used to mount the re-active armor panels were endlessly fiddly this was a fun kit to assemble and comes highly recommend to those who enjoy armor kits.
  16. 50/50 mix of distilled water and Vallejo Orange Fire thinly applied seems to be working well. My I-Phone is seeing a more yellow color but I assure you it’s definitely orange and honestly more true to the original color that my first build ten years ago.
  17. Thanks Panzer. I’ve watched several YouTube builds, one straight out of the box, and your right it’s a very old kit but I thought all three would be fun to build especially eliminating all the numerous seams lines etc. I be thought I’d throw some stowage and tarps at it too.
