WW II trash bins
Here's one from my "personal" collection. :smiling5: I no longer use it as a waste bin,........it now holds bird seed for the feeder.....it is quite old, as you can see by the last inspection date. Apparently it went through more than a couple of wars..... ;) Oh, it stands 24" tall and 15" in...- Mini Me

Best model you ever made?
Perhaps not my best but the most satisfying builds I ever did. 1-87 scale...as are all my builds. The shovel has not been rigged or weathered yet.- Mini Me

Tamiya 1/35 WW2 US Army Infantry
As Jakko has stated, you could see both in use at the same time. Early and late web gear was utilized until it became no longer useable or was replaced by an updated piece of equipment to replace it and even then it was phased in. As far as color goes...sky is the limit. examples below...- Mini Me

Stug Question
Even in 1-87 scale, the lowly StuG. was produced back in the early 1960's. I purchased this one for around $.039 as a 14 year old "collector" of ROCO Minitanks. The applique armour and other mods were done years later in the '80s. These will always have a place in my heart as the memories...- Mini Me

What's on the Bench 2023
Figured out an alternative to buying trailers for these large Autocar tractors I have had hanging around.......so, you take two ROCO trailers and you cut the back side off both, except you have to cut them so when you put them back together the end product is 4 feet (in scale) longer than when...- Mini Me

Rick's 1-87 Scale 3D Printed Fiat 666 Cargo Truck
OK......back at this and I must say I have saved the best for last. Finally lost the other side mirror while trying to fit the interior "blob" into the cab! I have been at this for a few hours now and it is like trying to "stuff" 10 lbs. of :poop: into a 5 lb. bag!! At any rate I will be able...- Mini Me

Vallejo Airbrush Flow Improver??
Just wondering if this has been tried for brush painting? I recently came into a whole 200ml. bottle of this stuff and am curious as to whether it would be useful in brush painting my little guys......I don't put anything but enamel paint through my A/B, so I'm hoping I can find another use for... -

Rick's 1-87 Scale 3D Printed Fiat 666 Cargo Truck
So....this little beast is a handful!! Nothing fits as it should, so far I have had to drill or file every part in order to get any kind of reasonable fit so I can eventually glue this thing together once all the paint work is completed. Until then it's "cut cut here" and a "snip snip" there...- Mini Me

Rick's 1-87 Scale 3D Printed Fiat 666 Cargo Truck
The Jury is still out on this guy Lee but overall it appears to be dimensionally correct. there are a few little lines in places but they sand out quickly. I have to be extremely careful, this thing is thinner than egg shell. I checked the thickness of the tarp for the cargo bed....... it's...- Mini Me
