Jack's Border 1/35 U-Boat Conning Tower
By Border, but sold separately. I got quite a good deal for both. Ironically, the pup went swimming for the first time today, thankfully didn’t sink! Made some progress with what seems to be an extensive exercise in adding various wires and pipes. Still a long way to go, but I think the lower...- Jack L

Jack's Border 1/35 U-Boat Conning Tower
I'll try and blog this build as it's a new one and I don't think anyone here has built one yet. Starting off, it's huge. The main hull section is 600mm. The plastic is a nice quality, however there are injection marks everywhere on the larger pieces, and the smaller parts have significant...- Jack L

Extremely surprised that this arrived today. I bought it yesterday, and with the goings on at Royal Mail, I didn't expect to see it until New Year I had no concept of the size... I assure you my arm is normal size... -
Jack's 1/35 Tamiya M3A2 Half Track
Calling this done. Still needs a matt varnish...but I won't get bench-time now before the deadline. Completely fictional Commonwealth Half Track. Hopefully with a few unique elements to it. Lots of stuff I don't like about it...but a fair bit I love. Experimented a fair bit. Hope you like it...- Jack L

Gern's Emergency services GB - Chat thread
This will be my entry, if that’s ok? I built this (earlier mould) as my first ever model with my Dad after a holiday in Anglesea (after hours sat watching the runway at RAF Valley). Been looking for an excuse to build a Sea King again. Despite being SAR and looking really nice, The box artwork...- Jack L

Jack's 1/35 Tamiya M3A2 Half Track
I don't think my updates (or complete lack of) have been particularly in the spirit of GBs, but have had preciousy little bench time so photo's haven't been the priority. We are getting there however...started painting in the details and doing some oil work (which is very much a learning...- Jack L

Jack's 1/35 Tamiya M3A2 Half Track
Afraid I have been terrible with progress shots... Construction pretty much there and primed. And then a concoction of these... To get a base colour I'm really happy with. Nit sure it really shows on camera though.- Jack L

Postman just dropped this off. Wanted one for a while and this popped up at a really good price. Tatty box but all intact inside. Looks really good and keen to start. May just jump the queue. Nice reference book included -
Jack's 1/35 Tamiya M3A2 Half Track
At the moment...this is the best 'reference' I can find. I wonder if anyone (@Jakko maybe?) can tell me if the Allied recognition starts would have been present or not as per this film still. I can't find too much info on the topic. Seemed to be hit and miss on British tanks, so I'm really not...- Jack L

Jack's 1/35 Tamiya M3A2 Half Track
Apologies again, I’m getting little bench time, and even less time admiring everyone else’s builds on here. I have made a little progress though: Out of the box so far, but I may try and make the interior a little more detailed. Will see how time eludes me.- Jack L

Jack's 1/35 Tamiya M3A2 Half Track
I'm not really getting much/any bench time lately, so not sure how I will go with this. But as my first GB entry....I'll try my best. Believe I need box and sprue shots?! Only three for the actual vehicle. Others are for the crew who I doubt I will get round to. Also need to locate the...- Jack L

Jack's Jagdpanther 314
Thank you all! I had forgotten I had a thread for this build! Apologies. There have been some updates: This weekend I finished putting together the Masterclub tracks, they need the finishing treatment, the whole lot needs a matt varnish, will then call it finished. I may do a simple base.- Jack L

What's on the bench 2022
While I work my way through Panther tracks...a Before and after. First attempt at proper figure modification. Not completely happy with the left elbow or the milliput finish, but Will see what primer does to him. (Asleep not dead). May try and sculpt a blanket over his lower half- Jack L

Started painting up a crew. Happy with the loader but may strip and re-paint the commander. Does anyone know if I have him in the right hatch?- Jack L

Thank you for the comments on the last update...was already enjoying this but they really do spur the efforts on. A few more details painted on, pin wash and rust effects added. C&C most welcome.- Jack L

What's on the bench 2022
Between evicting a nightmare lodger, and chasing around a little fur baby, actually managed a couple of hours at the bench to get some wet stuff on. Pretty damn happy with it so far!- Jack L

At first glance I had assumed this was a modern thing...but recognising a few of the 'suitable' ships listed as WW2 era craft, I had a bit of a google myself. Some great images out there. -
