  1. Fiddly ill-fitting exhaust manifolds play this afternoon. Not at the least bit impressed!!
  2. Well like I said to a friend paint will hide a multitude of sins but I like the detail. Now on to assembling the engine exhaust.
  3. Completed the main character in my planned 1/35 Tamiya German SturmTiger 38cm Assault Mortar Field Maintenance Depot Diorama this morning. Stretch my skill set by opening the superstructure to expose some scratch building, interior spaces and mortar. I was a bit apprehensive on doing so in the beginning but pleased with the results.
  4. Revell 1/35 SpaePz LUCHS. Mojo building fun complete. Another inexpensive nicely engineered Revell armor kit.
  5. It does indeed. I built as it came out of the box but PE hand rails etc would have enhanced the detail. However it was a great kit to build straight from the box.
  6. My first ship build completed in 2018 was HMCS SNOWBERRY. This Revell 1/144 Flower Class Corvette is a must build kit and is highly recommended for any ship/boat builder. Enjoy.
  7. Interesting. I would have assume that any small arms fire would only leave negligible marks!! However those marks add a bit of interest to our models.
  8. Wow amazing detail. I’m envious as that fiddly work would drive me crazy!
  9. Okay I got excited and installed the main gear!!! What have I done, lol!!!
  10. Good point!! I usually wait to add gear, panels, antennas etc until the very end of a build!! Just got excited on this one, lol!!!
  11. Yeah I’ll build anything Tamiya. Their engineering is amazing. Although their armor kits sometime are not very accurate I love them nonetheless.
  12. Update: Sorry for putting this under the wrong finish thread. Should have been in the aircraft section!! From 5 years ago. (Popped up in my FB memories today!! Enjoy!! Revell 1/32 Me262B-1/U1 Nightfighter Started (07/10/2018)/Finished OOB (11/29/2018) Well it took me long enough but ”Black 5” is finished. Great kit, great fit, almost built itself and highly recommended.
  13. Thanks I was please with the camouflage pattern. I used an old leftover NATO mask I had laying around. It was fiddly masking but all in all it came out well.
  14. Okay final recent finish! Finished my HobbyBoss 1/35 German Land-Wasser-Schlepper (LWS). Super unique kit and fun to build. Highly recommend to our DarkSide members!!!
  15. Another one for the motor pool!! Tamiya 1/35 German FlakPanzer in NATO camouflage. Although a 1975 mold the overall fit was perfect especially the mechanism to traverse the guns. Highly recommended!!
  16. I flew as a crew member on HH-53 out of NKP Thailand and had Sandy’s fly low cover for us during SAR missions. Devastating bird to say the least!
  17. Oh thanks. I agree it was a monster from a different era that’s for sure!! I’m with you on the 1/16 scale!
  18. Fiddly, fiddly, fiddly!!! Here’s my first attempt at wiring a radial engine. Should add some detail to the engine you’ll never see after the cowling is installed, lol!!!
  19. I have to agree that posting pictures is much better now. It’s easy and uncomplicated especially from your photos. Years ago it was to say the least a laborious task. We’ve come a long way! Here’s Jeroen, Rene and I at the Mega Hobby Store during my 2015 visit to Amsterdam!!
