    1/35 T34/76 by TAMIYA 35049 1942 production with metal tracks !

    Hi John, long time no see. Yep, 2022 was a good year tackling my monkeys.:p The good old early version of the T34 always looked good in winter camo and with full rubber tyres. Very iconic scenes of them racing through the steppes in mass surprising the germans. Looking forward to your...

    Mission Complete 1/35 modified Tamiya vignette

    Had a great time at the show in Penang and finally met Mike Butler the Kiwi and saw first hand his rendition of the Airfix Multi-Pose figure he painted which was featured in his FB page. Cheers, Wabble

    Mission Complete 1/35 modified Tamiya vignette

    Thank you. That was easy, just remove the spokes and airbrush the tyre threads after sanding them smooth. Thank you kindly. Thanks Steve. Thank you kindly Jim. Cheers, Wabble

    Mission Complete 1/35 modified Tamiya vignette

    Hi Guys, it's been a long time since I posted. Here's my latest vignette that I entered at MALCOM recently. Enjoy the pics. I have a full WIP on this build with a great amount spent on sculpting the figures which I will post later. My painting still needs improvement and I should have spent...

    Jim R's Revell 1/72 Torpedo Boat, PT-109

    Hi Jim, I was browsing through the old forum while preparing to post what I had done for the recent MALCOM show and came across your build. It's great to be back and seeing you build this...I have one myself and sits on the shelf waiting for a crew. Where did you get the crew? As you've...

    Update on Ron

    Always sad to know a fellow diorama builder has passed. Gonna miss his native communication with his band of workers...were they Jamaicans or South Africans? Oh and his plane chucking as well. RIP Ron Wabble aka Richard

    Hasegawa 1/32 Spitfire MkVI High Altitude fighter.

    Okay, did page 2 so now all back to the original large images. Coincidentally there are other Spit builds currently for a running GB but I can't join as mine is not a new kit from scratch on day one of the GB but a pre covid build. Will see if I can continue building it. Cheers, Wabble

    I see Chick Norris is dead

    The running joke I just read is that President Xi says it's now safe to attack the US since Chuck Norris has passed away. Another is at the pearly gates Bruce asks Norris why so late. RIP Chuck Norris. Cheers, Wabble

    Steve's 1/32 Revell Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IXc

    Hi Steve, I've just read the pages to this excellent build. I hope I'm not too late regarding the gap at the wing root which is quite obvious and apparent in many larger scales. Unless the manufacturer has provided a dehydral sprue support for the lower wing, I rarely follow the lower wing as a...

    Hasegawa 1/32 Spitfire MkVI High Altitude fighter.

    Hi Guys, I've just revisited this build and adjusted the images on page 1 to larger formats for better viewing. Will work on page 2 next and then see if I get the mojo to continue the build after reorganizing my references to the Malta paint scheme. Cheers, Wabble

    Tamiya 1/72 Junkers Ju87G-2 Stuka

    Very nicely done Joe. Looking as deadly as it did in its prime and rather large for a 1/72 scale. Jim, you're not far off as in real life it was quite a large aircraft. Being heavy and singled engine it was a sitting duck in the air in dog fights. The added siren made it terrifying indeed...

    Hi Guys, this might be a double post and may be directed to the proper page. I just discovered that my new posts doesn't seem to appear in the new post page and am testing to see if this works. I have restored the first page of the Walrus 1/72 catapult dio images and will be doing the rest next...

    Modelmaker in Sweden

    Hi Nina, I know what you mean. The latest fad that has come out are decals that are applied in reverse of the usual slide on technique. Instead of the film being at the bottom, it is on the top and after the decal is set you peel away the top film leaving the print behind. Haven't tried but...
