Hobbylink had them but I see that they are discontinued now. .......I'll look out for them.

Wasn't sure if I'd post this. considering, but, here it is.... I thought somebody might be interested. I saw this on Andy's site the other day and thought it would be a fun build.... I posted some artillery builds here before..but in 1/35, well, they're tiny. This thing, will be reasonably big! It's Das Werk's new 1/16 German 7.5 cm PaK 40 (mid/late) 2 in 1 ( DW 16020). It looks pretty good....There's a choice of 3 wheel/tire combos, a turned metal barrel, ammo, ammo crates, and ammo cases. There's also, three decal options, and different muzzle brake options. No figures, however.... but I'm sure there'll be something from aftermarket soon, if not already. Anyway, as always, I hope someone finds this useful 😀 A good site for pictures...... https://www.net-maquettes.com/pictures/pak-40-walk/ I hope there will be more guns in this scale.

Nice work😀 I like your welds and weathering!

Great selection of kits, Ralph 😀 Hope to see your builds!

Looking great , Gus😀 Nice work!

Sorry, can't give you any info on that kit...but I would like to see a 1/32 Betty. I have the Tamiya 1/48 kit and I was thinking that a surrender painted Betty would be cool after I had seen a documentary about the surrender. If you find it, please share your build😀

Looking amazing Rob!

B36?

Congrats! Well done Kevin!

Ok....something you probably won't see here often,...but it is large scale (1/12). Well, I've accumulated a bunch of these " Egg Girl" things from Hasegawa.....so I decided to actually build one. So, here she is, Claire Frost in her flight suit. I like the MR Color paints....this is my first time using these.....good paint. I especially like the Mr Color semi gloss clear. This build went well, despite the decals needing a little extra attention and lots of Walther's Solvaset to get them settled. Anyway, a little diversion. My next project will be the DAS WERK panzer III in 1/16 . Something big coming😀

Looks like a great airbrush😀 I hope you enjoy your new purchase!

Very cool....Will be watching😀

Cool Stuff! Thanks for sharing.

Looks great Rob😀 Do the polished white metal parts eventually tarnish again?

A number of items including: A 1/35 RSO OST from Miniart.... Had to get this one. Looks tiny and complex. What to expect from Miniart (Manypart)😀 Loads of masking tape from Tamiya A pliers and metal nipper from Godhand. A "Tweezer-action" scissors and a Conical file from Tamiya. From Dspiae a kind of double-ended scraper tool.....They call it a " Broad edge broach". It has a flat chisel blade on one end and, as shown, a double edge point at the other. This should be useful for eliminating the seams on the resin figures I have. These are good products, and I hope people find this post useful😀

Whohooo! Is perhaps understatement😀 I hope you share your build of this magnificent Duck!

Nice! Is the zimmerit resin?

'Been following that as well....good stuff!

How is that I love Kit Duck?

Duck's on the way!😀

How about field grey for the tubing...used on some German equipment. Greenish ....Might look good.😀

Those are both very nice kits! I have the STug and the big half track without the gun.....I could use some some purging myself but really don't know how...I don't have a LHS and I don't have an EBAY account. Perhaps if someone here needs something?😀 I have Recently become more aware about how quickly things can get out of hand in regards to having a stash. I won't be getting anything more as far as models. Supplies and tools needed only.. for awhile. I have seen a few Websites state "We buy Collections". has anyone tried this....?

I saw this on The Modeling News ......A pair of HS 129's by Takom Wings to be released. https://www.themodellingnews.com/2025/06/takom-wings-new-pair-of-48th-scale-hs.html#more

Another beautiful finish! Well done.

Sounds great. The origin of the name Belugawhaleman is my own self-deprecating description of my receding hairline,large forehead and Pale complexion that, in combination, give me a somewhat Beluga appearance. And yes, I did see a story about that aquarium on Fox news. Thanks Rob Martin HAS been busy😀
