    ISU-122 Tank Destroyer........ Ogonek 1/30

    Wait, Chinese hardware replacing old soviet tech... Sure I've heard that before somewhere...

    Rick’s 1/72 Airfix Junkers Ju52 - a rite of passage build

    Glad this seems to be fitting together well as those corrugations could be, well, daunting. Where eagles daunt?

    Chris' 1/144th F-Toys MiG-21F-13

    Now, as a quick work-in-progress side note, here are three more F-Toys F-13s currently being worked on These will be: the Ye-6/2 (which might be the inspiration for the Chinese J-7 GBs, though the reason here was to extend the wing-tips to fit a missile pylon), the Ye-6T/3 six-surface test...

    Chris' 1/144th F-Toys MiG-21F-13

    Affinity, or OCD? I can't really tell. I have a tendency to want to build multiple, different, variants and sub-variants of my subjects. Hence why I have six different A13 Cruiser tanks finished, and five different Macchi MC202 kits pending Thirty-odd years ago, we were all set to do these...

    Tamiya German WW2 Elite Infantryman 1:16th scale.

    People ask me why I don't even have a mobile, let alone a smartphone In the last thirty years I would have needed a mobile exactly twice. This laptop is bad enough for dragging me back on teh intrawebs! Of course, when I use my Canon for photos on here, the number of times it's so bright I'm...

    Chris' Retrokit 1/144th MiG-21I Analog

    Somethings are so straightforward Others. Not so much So, in detaching the 'plane from the mould base, I managed to break off part of the engine surround. A clean break though, so it glued back on easy enough As I'm doing the first Analog, I'd either need to re-work the kit spine and tail...

    Japanese GTR tuning shop

    And there it is. A model of a model with a model! Hmm, in addition to what Paul said, there are lots of military vehicles with wheels... (well, technic ally, tanks have wheels too, but you know what I mean...) Of course, ships have wheels too.... Come with us. Step into the light...

    Chris' Tamiya 1/24 Campus Friends II

    Also, I keep looking at the 1/38 JGSDF vehicles... But I'd need a 1/48 Gojira or Gamera to go with them... Which do exist as kits...

    Tamiya German WW2 Elite Infantryman 1:16th scale.

    Definitely looks better with this camera Smartphones are over-rated! Fun idea with the trio, that only the main guy has noticed something amiss while the other two have a little chat! I do like the tankie (And being an old figure modeller/painter, I still think of 120mm rather than 1/16! Or...

    Geoff’s 1/48 Trumpeter MiG-3 (Neil’s MiGs blooming everywhere GB)

    Very very nice turnout I especially like the minimal weathering, with the little exhaust streak down the side Crackin'!

    Tamiya German WW2 Elite Infantryman 1:16th scale.

    I concur If I may minor critique, eyes might need a bit of work. Only that he's not looking down the MP40 There are many, many ways of cheating with eyes tho'

    Chris' 1/144th F-Toys MiG-21F-13

    Here we go The F-Toys kits are pretty much snap-together, but I'm gluing and filling, just a little. This original colour scheme is for an East German tactical job, but I'm going for an Indian Air Force job, using Heroics and Ros multi-scale transfers. And fineliner pen for codes! You can...

    Chris' Tamiya 1/24 Campus Friends II

    So, haven't got a sprue shot yet, but here's the box art When I saw this set on the shelf in one of our go-to model shops, I just couldn't resist Already made a start on two of tnhe figures and the moped, so they're not the build for the GB. It will be the two taking the selfie.\ With probably...

    Geoff’s Tamiya 1/48 De Havilland Mosquito B Mk.IV / PRMk.IV.

    Okay, that's two Mossies to start with, so I'm definitely sticking with the figures I chose

    Chris' Retrokit 1/144th MiG-21I Analog

    Well, another OOB build, of the Retrokit 'Analog' conversion kit to a MiG-21. It's practically a kit in itself, and the only kit parts will be the canopy and undercarriage - all Eduard The 'Analog' was built, ostensively, as a test of the wing form of the Tu-144 supersonic airliner. Various...

    Chris' 1/144th F-Toys MiG-21F-13

    Right, this is pretty much going to be an OOB build Almost I'm going to do an open canopy, so there's a bit more cockpit detail to add (especially in light of a YouTube vid showing a load of bright yellow piping in the rear cockpit that isn't on any kit in any scale, so far as I've seen)...
