    Jack's 1/35 Tamiya M3A2 Half Track

    Apologies again, I’m getting little bench time, and even less time admiring everyone else’s builds on here. I have made a little progress though: Out of the box so far, but I may try and make the interior a little more detailed. Will see how time eludes me.

    Jack's 1/35 Tamiya M3A2 Half Track

    I'm not really getting much/any bench time lately, so not sure how I will go with this. But as my first GB entry....I'll try my best. Believe I need box and sprue shots?! Only three for the actual vehicle. Others are for the crew who I doubt I will get round to. Also need to locate the...

    Jack's Jagdpanther 314

    Thank you all! I had forgotten I had a thread for this build! Apologies. There have been some updates: This weekend I finished putting together the Masterclub tracks, they need the finishing treatment, the whole lot needs a matt varnish, will then call it finished. I may do a simple base.

    What's on the bench 2022

    While I work my way through Panther tracks...a Before and after. First attempt at proper figure modification. Not completely happy with the left elbow or the milliput finish, but Will see what primer does to him. (Asleep not dead). May try and sculpt a blanket over his lower half

    What's on the bench 2022

    Started painting up a crew. Happy with the loader but may strip and re-paint the commander. Does anyone know if I have him in the right hatch?

    What's on the bench 2022

    Been a bit warm up in the loft for too much work, but started adding some weathering detail.

    What's on the bench 2022

    Thank you for the comments on the last update...was already enjoying this but they really do spur the efforts on. A few more details painted on, pin wash and rust effects added. C&C most welcome.

    What's on the bench 2022

    Between evicting a nightmare lodger, and chasing around a little fur baby, actually managed a couple of hours at the bench to get some wet stuff on. Pretty damn happy with it so far!

    Spots on the Internet (2022)

    At first glance I had assumed this was a modern thing...but recognising a few of the 'suitable' ships listed as WW2 era craft, I had a bit of a google myself. Some great images out there.

    Connie came home yesterday evening. No instructions included unfortunately so will have a look on scalemates. I think about 1/6th scale, so not what I’m used to. Have bought a ton of aftermarket to go with. Q

    A (re) Introduction

    As I didn’t introduce myself when I joined: Morning all, I’m Jack and currently living in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.Think I am probably one of the ’less experienced’ members here at 34. Modelled as a junior with Dad (who now makes incredible scratch built metal working trains) and then by...

    Well not modelling related...but this little lump comes home next week, and will likely detract from bench time. Connie

    Bird Watching a Relaxing Hobby

    Just as I was about to start mowing: a murder in the garden. Unbelievably, the camera was to hand. A Sparrowhawk with one of the local Starling youngsters.

    What's on the bench 2022

    Bank Holiday mojo high, and still waiting on a delivery of AM tracks for my other project...so thought I would have some fun practicing some more scratchery on a toon.

    Jack's Jagdpanther 314

    Tried to go historically accurate for the first time. A fairly well photographed vehicle, 'cept I have merged the photos into one. Meng's Jagdpanther G1 with Voyager PE. Zimmeritt is half milliput, half Tamiya epoxy putty. I found the Tamiya Putty too hard (consistency) to work with. Milliput...

    Thank you John. Other than the WNW, there is nothing that I couldn't get delivered at home, more the pleasure of being in a physical shop and having the box in your hand. I'm honestly tempted. And not just for the models... Sorry...off topic I know!

    The work trip has brought me to Vancouver (one of my favourite places on the planet). Anyway...found the most amazing model shop about an hours walk from the hotel, and I've never seen a place like it. The most unbelievable selection of models, tools, paints and aftermarket. There was literally...

    As I have said before…my career has not recovered from Covid, and since Christmas I have been really struggling financially, most months worried about the rent. However, I have a consultancy role for two weeks that will pay quite well, and has me out in Singapore, where there are some fantastic...
