    Hasegawa 1/72 Robotech/Macross Valkyrie Battroid

    Hi ya all, the colour is on, now for the decals. I tried to avoid as many of the large decals as possible. I'm happy with my efforts. Now for a coating Pledge to assist with the decals, then another coat, some wash, and the finally a coat of matt....I think and probably some last minute...

    Hasegawa 1/72 Robotech/Macross Valkyrie Battroid

    This is the completed office block. Did some signage, the fictional engineering company that reverse engineered and developed the Valkyrie. Just to add some random Macross reference to a dull building. Did a spot of weathering and added HVAC and grime to the roof. I'm really chuffed with the...

    Hasegawa 1/72 Robotech/Macross Valkyrie Battroid

    I did some roadworks and road signage, starting to take shape, now just need to weather the road and complete the Battroid. Used Vallejo's excellent asphalt product. A little weathering and a Battroid would not go amiss. Till next time!

    Hasegawa 1/72 Robotech/Macross Valkyrie Battroid

    I managed to finish the exterior and put in the "glazing". I'm so impressed I almost want to leave the film on, but that will conceal all my efforts. Thanks for watching!

    1/35 Rooikat AFV (Trumpeter)

    Let there be dust! Found a great product, Modellers Pigment, Brown Earth. I am in the process of applying it liberally to my Rooikat. As you can in this image of a test bed variant, the dust really sticks. This is what I am trying to emulate with my build. Thanks for watching.

    1/35 SADF Eland Mk7 (AML 90) "Noddy Car"

    Hi ya all, While the paint is drying on my 1/35 Trumpeter Rooikat, I thought that I would make in roads on “Ou Boet” (Old Brother), the Eland 90 reconnaissance armoured car that preceded the Rooikat, “Klein Boet” (Baby Brother). My build is based on the 1/35 Takom AML 90 kit, which will...

    1/35 Rooikat AFV (Trumpeter)

    Hi ya all! I'm back in the seat, had my hip replacement op on the 28th Jan. The new one is still wearing in but more importantly, not painful. I have been busy with the Rooikat during my recovery. It is now nearing completion. Here are some images of my work to date: Primed and ready to go...

    1/35 Rooikat AFV (Trumpeter)

    Well, the fiddly suspension has gone in and it's ready for wheels. (much later) Here are some images of more suspension assembly work. Rear suspension fitted. Full suspension fitted I started on the front and rear hull armour plates. The pinned shackles on the sprue sheet leave a lot to be...

    1/35 Rooikat AFV (Trumpeter)

    Hi ya! Started on the Rooikat, as expected it is not as diminutive as the “Noddy Car”, here are some images of the hull, and main hull components. Started the suspension, what a mission for a wheeled vehicle. You'd expect this level of complexity with a tracked vehicle.:dizzy: This is...

    1/35 Rooikat AFV (Trumpeter)

    Hi all, it's been a while since I last built any 1/35 modern armour in my late teen and early twenties. To re-engage with the subject I thought it would be great to build modern AFV's from the SADF (South African Defence Force) when they had AFV and troop carriers featuring some of the most...

    WW2 German Fast Attack Craft, S-100 Class (Revell 1:72)

    As promised, the build made it to Telford and took its place on our small table. I decided the Schnellboot deserved a display case, so I purchased the biggest one Trumpeter had to offer. To my surprise this turned out to be quite a tight fit. Anyways, she is now proudly sitting in her new...

    WW2 German Fast Attack Craft, S-100 Class (Revell 1:72)

    Hi ya all! I haven't updated since the last charge for Telford 2022. I did manage to complete the model to a point, enough so that I could put it on the clubs table. Here are the build images leading up to Telford. Thanks for watching, I'll follow up with an update for the...

    1/24 R8 Samba "Sleepah"

    A small update on the Samba, I finally entered into the competition at Telford 2022. To my amazement I managed to get a Silver. So happy with the result, as the competition was stiff.

    WW2 German Fast Attack Craft, S-100 Class (Revell 1:72)

    I have been procrastinating with the rails as they are numerous and fiddly. Finally manage to filt them and the boat is edging towards completion. Still the bridge, guns, ropes and flag to do and a spot of weathering. Till next time, thanks for watching.:thumb2:
