    Latest Acquisitions (2023)

    Here's my modest haul from the De Havilland Museum Show The figure set on the left is the Italeri Elco PT Boat Crew , for £3 - BARGAIN! I've decide to dump the Vallejo primer and try the AK as it's so well-loved on this forum. And the Red Knight was a fiver and will be great for my grandson...

    1/32 Scale Household Cavalry Corporal of Horse, 1916

    I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I so enjoyed painting the Airfix US Marine that I decided to paint something else right away! This is a Tommy’s war figure I’ve had primed and ready since May 2021 when I used him as a size guide for the RGA Gunner I sculpted (Link HERE if anyone’s...

    Iwo Jima 1-32 Scale

    I decided to build and paint one of the Airfix US Marines 'Out Of The Box' (ALMOST), as a test to see how much of the original stuff I could actually tolerate... The only deviations from OOTB are the addition of the helmet straps and carbine sling. And the grenades are my own 3D printed ones...

    'A Gentleman in Khaki' - Boer War Soldier

    Sorry for the slight hijack , but I thought this would amuse you all The bloodstains are actually my own blood, an opportunistic application when a knife blade snapped (I must have been about 16 at the time). I think it was made by New Hope Design (probably NOT a reference to a certain space...

    Airfix 54mm Napoleonic French Line Infantry

    Fusilier 12 is done Annoyingly I don't notice the white dust until I see the pics on the PC screen:rolling: Unfortunately I broke the musket detaching it from the painting stick, so I'll have to paint another one-I do have a fair few spares. Only 3 left to go now... Cheers Neil

    A Second Grasshopper-1-32 Scale 95th Rifles Part 2

    Way back in May 2019 I joined a group build called 'Bought at Cosford for a Fiver' which was great fun. It was only my second GB and sadly has not been run since, because Cosford has not happened since...! Only the one figure qualified as bought at Cosford ( for £2.50- bargain!) but I wanted...

    Airfix 54mm Napoleonic French Line Infantry

    Thank you kindly, Gentlemen all, for the fine comments! I hereby present to you Fusilier 12 in his pre-painted state. I think the bayonet I printed looks a bit overscale so I'm going to check the dimensions and maybe print some a bit smaller. I had problems painting the eyes of the last few...

    Thanks you gentlemen for the great comments. Here is Fusilier 9 all put together, he just needs a bit of mud & possibly blood, but I'll do all that at the end I think. thanks for watching N

    1/87 Scale WWII German Heavy Infantry Weapons in Retreat

    There you go Presumably most of the lintels were replaced -if you look at the one on the extreme left it's the same colour as the stone above . The airport was relatively undamaged by the bombing as the Allies wanted to be able to use it after the war, although there was some fighting there...

    Iwo Jima 1-32 Scale

    Cheers Rick 13 so far..... I don't know if I will do any more - I still have some interesting pics that I haven't replicated yet but I may have peaked. I've put them in a box for now so I can get back to the Fusiliers and avoid distraction. Thanks everyone for watching.

    Iwo Jima 1-32 Scale

    I've added arms and a head to the casualty from the spares box And I 've started work on the kneeling guy using one leg from each of these I cut away the boot soles I'll have to add a trouser cuff to the right leg I pinned the torso to the legs I found arms and hands in the...

    Iwo Jima 1-32 Scale

    Well, I'm on a bit of a roll so I'll keep going for now.... This is the idea for the next couple of figures I might make the kneeling guy into a corpsman if I can get around to making the right kit for him- I notice in photos that the Corpsmen are armed and not wearing red crosses in the...

    Iwo Jima 1-32 Scale

    I've found the original inspiration pic- it's from this book, first published in 1962 and here's the pic No mention of the scale, unfortunately- I'm guessing it's bigger than 1-32, judging by the quality of the sculpting compared to almost everything else in the book, which is very much...
