    What to do with completed models?

    The trouble is that they accumulate over the years and can't possibly be displayed in their entirety without creating a museum in a totally dedicated room. We have two spare bedrooms and I once suggested such a scenario for one of them, let's just say I never did again :( I'm lucky to be able...

    What to do with completed models?

    I still have most of them though many are in cold storage (attic) some are on display in our family room which is just a second parlor though with a more manly motiff. My fish mounts and such, my own TV and stereo system and most importantly CAT FREE!!😿 Jim.

    The Savage Ost Front

    Four pics got repeated, I must have screwed up somewhere:mad: Thanks Peter, I am very unhappy with current set of pics, not to mention repeats. Will try to put some more up on this thread, on my original thread from a few years back pics were much better but they cannot be viewed full size...

    The Savage Ost Front

    Tank is BT5 with the revolutionary Christie suspension system. Thinly armored and under gunned it was no match for the German Panzers.

    No Quarter

    Thanks guys, I love doing wrecks such as this, it gives one so much room to play and NOT work out of the box. Highly technical reproductions as some special modelers can produce are indeed facanating to me and beyond my scope. But after all someone's got to swing the wrecking ball and the Grim...

    Happy Campers

    I have been asked that same question many times over the years and the basic answer is one most folks don't like to hear. Fanatical, maniacal, obsessive practice practice practice. I have done some in progress dio threads but that was some years ago (started on site in 2015) though some were...

    Tank is your basic T34 with a 75mm gun, later upgraded to the T34/85 with a new turret design and a much more powerful 85mm gun. (I have one of those coming down the pike) The T34 series were considered the best tanks of WWII, their diesel engines kept on going while German petrol engines...

    War Pigs

    Thanks guys, the tank is a T72, ancient and primitive by todays standards. Not to be political but this is the depth of callous desperation a certain world "leader" has plunged his military into because of his egotistical megalomania and dreams of ressurecting a long defuncked political regime...

    War Pigs

    Now in darkness, world stops turning. While the war machine keeps churning. Day of judgement God is calling, on their knees the War Pigs crawling. Begging mercy for their sins, Satan laughing spreads his wings.

    Fury

    This tank made famous from the movie "Fury" is the American medium tank M4A3. It was the most developed of all the Sherman variants, using the more effective horizontal volute spring system and a more powerful 76mm gun. Ford built 1,690 units between June 1942 and September 1943. Jim.

    Jackson In Action

    Thank you so much, I wanted to show a vehicle negotiating the muddy, slushy terrain of early winter somewhere in France. I also wanted to depict the weight and suspension movement of the M36 Jackson tank destroyer. It had a thinner armored turret than the basic Sherman and an open top to lessen...

    Anybody Home?

    Thanks guys, had a lot of fun with this one, walls are scratch made, shingles are corregated card board. Base also scratched up from foam board with cobble stones carved in with a dull pencil. Beams are various sizes of craft sticks and shingle slats are cut strips of craft paper. All paints are...
