    Stuka zu Fuss Diorama in pr

    Started to assemble bits and pieces to complete the Diorama for the Rocket GB; may not be finished before the end of December but should be soon thereafter if not. Probably won't use everything but at least I'll have the choice! The setting will be second-line resupply/maintenance area with a...

    Airborne's 'Stuka zu Fuss'. Dragon 1/35

    Coming close to completion; needs the weathering to be modified and some more internal stowage - this will be followed by the building of the diorama scenario, I'm thinking a resupply location with a more relaxed feel, perhaps in a ruined industrial site. There are several dozen more rockets to...

    Help with 3D Printed Models Please

    This may be a 'how long is a piece of string?' type question but here goes: I will soon attempt the German Motorcyclist for one of the GBs; it's a 3D print in a light grey resin and covered in copious amounts of release agent (?). My questions are as follows: 1. What is the best solvent for...

    Airborne's Para Officer - ex D-Day Anniversary GB

    Realised I hadn't posted the completion pics from Lee's GB - well here it is! Changed the badge on the front of the base because I thought the previous was 'showy' and wanted something more 'fitting', The base is reversed as the CA debonder totally knackered the surface (more work to do...

    PBI (Poor Bloody Infantry)

    Reading Memorial Posts et al I had a thought (unusually!) - perhaps a wide-ranging GB covering 'Poor Bloody Infantry'. Any scale, any format (ie Dioramas, V Busts, Individual soldiers, etc,etc, etc) any scenario, any period (Ancient to Modern). Almost by definition the main point of interest...

    Airborne's 1/16 3-D Printed German Motorcyclist

    After my abject failure to insert this in the correct GB I'm trying again :o! This is my first 3-D venture so I'm somewhat nervous and will doubtless ask for advice on adhesives , fillers etc - I'm glad the GB lasts until March! Manufacturer is unknown, lots of finely detailed parts, can't find...

    Airborne's 'Stuka zu Fuss'. Dragon 1/35

    Waiting eagerly for the starting gun I thought I'd post the sprue shots of my victim. Dragon 6861 SdKfz 251/1 Ausf D mit 28/32 Wurfrahmen. Usual clean Dragon casting, plethora of unused parts and duplication of sprue identifying letters - 15 marked 'A' for example! 2 bags of Magic Tracks and...

    1/72 HMS Andromeda (circa. 1976)

    All this talk of floaty things reminded me I have a momento of times long gone; the reverse is scurrilous so no image! It's a great t-shirt and still fits (although SWMBO won't let me out of the house wearing it!) Steve

    Airborne's D-Day Para bust 1/9 Mitches models.

    Been away in Andalusia with the outlaws for a fortnight and been unable to access the forum because the two-part verification code refused to appear (constantly); however I've made some progress on the bust and base. It's about 90% finished and, as always, I can see areas for improvement -...

    Airborne's Tamiya 155mm GMC

    Seeing Jakko's upcoming build I remembered I had this tucked away on the Shelf of Doom and was prompted to complete it. A diorama base was in preparation but there will be no progress for a while as I need to finish the Para Officer for the D-Day GB, and we go on holiday tomorrow followed by...

    Airborne's D-Day Para bust 1/9 Mitches models.

    Been very busy of late (but not in the Pleasure Dome!), however have managed the initial paint on the face - the face-veil is just blocked in - I've gone for an exhausted look due to the bags under his eyes and hopefully the remainder of the paint will reflect this. Constructive criticism...

    Lee's Rocket/Missile GB, Oct - Dec 2024 Welcome and chat

    Supply problems and price have put me off my original idea of Congreve rocket and crew so, as I already have this in my stash, this will be my offering! It's Dragon's 1/35 SdKfz 251/1 Ausf D mit 28/32 cm Wurfrahmen 40. I Intend to place it in a small diorama - composition undecided yet! Still...

    Airborne's D-Day Para bust 1/9 Mitches models.

    Well, the Bergepanzer is over and forgotten and now a start on the 1/9 Mitch's Models D-Day Para Officer bust! The model has only three parts; the bust itself, the chin cup and the strap that secures the chin cup. In terms of moulding the detail and personification is superb with only a couple...

    Airborne's 1/35 Takom Bergepanzer 2A2

    Weeell, I think this is finished, fertig, sorted etc, etc! Couple of minor hitches but I think it will hide nicely on the book shelf! Not 100% satisfied but it'll do I suppose. No comparisons with Scottie's masterpiece please, Anyway, here it is... Steve
