    Which model gave you most satisfaction in 2019?

    The CMP, as the scratch building went well and I was pleased with the final look. It is Tamiya's 1:35 Quad Tractor

    Andy's 1/35 Tamiya Stug B

    You should have a floor. I take it the kit didnt supply one. Somebody more knowledgable than me should tell you that there is a PE version out there somewhere. You could scratch build one but again creating the knobbly effect would be for someone else to advise on

    Weathering practice.

    Its all about building up depth for the viewer. First is the red oxide primer, then hairspray, then Dunkelgelb, chipping, hairspray, two tone camo colours, chipping, mask for disc camo pattern, hairspray, mask for inner number, mask for outer number, chipping, fine mist of camo black at arms...

    The Michael Rinaldio oil painting method.

    One of the main advantages of OPR is you can start and stop it at any time. So if you are called away to do the odd chore you can come back to the build and just carry on as if you hadnt been away. In theis example with my Cromwell stack, I spent a couple of hours fully weathering the front...

    Three Arnhem Busts

    Up front and centre for this one Peter. I'm obsessed with all things Market Garden. Spent my 50th BDay travelleling from Eindhoven to Arnhem in the footsteps of XXX Corps. On Johnny Frosts bridge I sat where the ammunition dump was blown up by the welsh soldier with his Piat in the film a Bridge...

    RP Models 75mm Parthia Cataphract Catafratari

    It was great to see your figure at the show and congrats on the medal. I was wondering what the message on the piece of paper meant now I know why. I hope he didnt fall off and get damaged. There was some wonderful work at the show. I was a little disappointed in the lack of figure work in the...

    Liberation, Italy 1944

    It was great to see this build in the flesh at Telford last weekend. It looks even better close up. Congratulations on winning the Silver medal. The Gold winner was top quality work as well but I personnaly thought that you just edged it with your attention to detail. Have you any plans for...

    Dzhon Race. TIGER 1 Tamiya 1/35

    If you want to paint it gray you paint it gray mate. It is indeed high probability that it was Dunkelgelb but the experts once said the earth was flat. There are arguments on both sides. Here is a photo of your tank coloured in. Obviously this guy thought it was gray :smiling5: :cool::thumb2...

    Dzhon Race. TIGER 1 Tamiya 1/35

    Only one thing I can understand, where to fit the two rear smoke ? or mine hurlers. Can't see anywhere they should go on the corners. These at the front went on ok, but had more trouble trying to line them up for fitting as I could not judge the depth, after several attempts they went on. A good...

    THAT Tiger.

    Si is correct in what he says about the 332 being made in March 1943. They would have been issued with the early sprocket and early tracks which are these ones You have the mid to late version As these things cost a lot of money, you will probably want to go for the later version sprocket...

    Dzhon Race. TIGER 1 Tamiya 1/35

    A great way to introduce yourself to the world of Tigers. The 332 is quite a well known Tiger with lots of information on it. There are some famous photos of it stuck and pulled out of the Russian mud which may be of interest for you if you want to do a dio. I hope you sought out the issue with...

    Si & Steve's Animal Antics GB: Oct 2019 - March 2020 Chat thread.

    I'm afraid I wasnt around at the time. I am reincarnated from Sergeant John Cooper a Fusilier during the Napoleonic wars.:smiling5: These are some of the passages that I based my summations on For example, after the Battle of Stalingrad in 1943, several hundred German Panzer III tanks and...
