    Off-Road Truck Diorama

    Could not agree more with former comments, what I mean to say is I'm speechless 🫢 The excavator is what got me. Jim.

    While never a fan of the 'bullpup' style of rifle they do provide a full length assault barrel in a very short unit. Jim.

    M16 Half Track...... Tamiya 1/35

    Very nice work so far Paul, I built this same model many years ago, though of course I stripped the guns off and mounted them on a modified Staghound😬 So it is now an artillery tractor loaded with crap and pulling a howitzer. I'll put it up soon. It is a well made kit with good fit and detail...

    As a kid I had a "Johnny Eagle" toy M14, it was totally realistic and I think full sized, you would never see such a toy produced today as it was a real suicide by cop item for sure. Here was their full line, this was of course the 1960s. Jim

    Been distracted

    Sometimes the written word can be misinterpreted, I meant no slight my friend. My Grandkids have several air rifles and believe me I know how dangerous and indeed deadly at times they can be. Certainly they are not toys or anything to be trifled with. The kids have a ball periodically going on...

    War Pigs part Two again!!

    Thanks Paul, nice to be known for something other than my many ailments, it has certainly been a rough year and a half for me. I still don't feel completely out of the woods yet with this C-Diff business. I have good days and bad with occasional weakness and gastric distress. I still have to see...

    War Pigs Part Two

    Finally finished it though I don' know how much I like it. I'm getting too old and crippled up to keep putting out major projects anymore. Carpel-tunnel syndrome is hitting me very hard indeed. I can't hardly sleep at night or do much of anything because of the constant pain. C-Diff screwed up...

    War Pigs

    This is the original Ukraine dio, next up will be two T62s if you can imagine! Putin is scouring the museums and private collectors to try to make up for the catastrophic tank losses incurred in this senseless war. Are the few surviving T34s next up? Jim.

    Thanks much, Ukraine dio needs some finishing touches and I have been lax to finish. No excuses, just too busy of late but will turn it out in a couple of days....having a hard time naming it. Thinking of going simple like 'War Pigs Part Two' as it is in the same conflict as the original 'War...

    Happy Campers

    Thanks for your concern John, am doing great and am almost back to normal, even getting some work done around the compound. Still avoiding any heavy work and am staying out of the woods. Came mighty close to cashing it in a couple of times but have absolutely forbidden any such signs of...

    Walked toward the light but turned back

    Thanks folks, sure was a close one a couple o times, but you know I never lost hope. The hardest part (emotionally that is) was repeatedly forbidding Colleen or either of my boys and grand kids from visiting me at all. I just could not bear to let them see me in such dire straights. I'm home now...

    GOODBYE

    SHEESH!...was only kidding about the shower antics, I did not intend to draw out such intimate details.😣 But the rest of my post is true, my Honey loves me so unconditionally it makes me almost believe in real Angels right here on earth. No one is less deserving than I of such devotion, she has...

    GOODBYE

    - Oh, don't feel too put upon Chris, since coming home from hospital my missus is having a resurgence of her motherly instincts. we have these little walkie-talkies and if I leave her sight for even a moment off it goes! Where are you? what are you doing? are you ok? how's your belly? how's...
