Finally found the 3rd fuel tank & source for PzrIV Hauler PE tracks. Now I can work the tank plumbing & finish the last Hummel of the battery.

- Thread starter Graeme C.
- Start date
Plumbing done, tie down chains done, a filler handle & some paint touch-up should finish this pair unless I missed something U see.
Looking good bud. Unusual subject as well.

Not that exciting but I did some compressor maintenance (rusty water etc)
I'm using a compressor from the DIY store that lives in the closet, and I use this setup with a gauge, aquarium hoses and small water taps.
For years I've been dealing with leaky connection xD,
So I was looking for 2 new pneumatic taps/valves and found a few pneumatic kits on Amazon,
It's still a work in progress but all my leaks are gone
so very happy with the new plumbing.
Compressor goes in on the left > moister trap with fine tune gauge > 2 valves > air to airbrush 0.3mm (left) or 0.5mm (right).

Very well done Steven - all sorted

All my other projects are on hold at the moment while I play with this, a fathers day pressie from my lad.
Tons of work have gone into it so far and there's still a way to go but it's a great refresher after getting bogged down with having so many other things in the go at once.

I went to the Shropshire Model Show a week or so ago. A good little show. Got chatting to a guy called Adrian Hopwood. A excellent figure painter. He has a website - www.bashmodels.co.uk. On a nearby table was a guy selling 3D figures and you know how it is 
I got a bit carried away.
Inspired by Adrian and full of good will and bacon butty I bought a Dwarf Warrior!
Here he is cleaned up and primed.
...and painted a bit
I'm so far out of my comfort zone it's ridiculous

Good for you Jim. It looks like you're off to a great start on a very nice figure.

This arrived yesterday. Going to build it for the Ron Memorial Build.
I lost interest with C being like she is, a constant worry . Saw we were going to do a build in Ron's memory, so gave me the push I needed.
I knew of Ron's illness a long while ago , he asked me not to say anything. As fellow wood "BUTCHERS " we often had a laugh.

right now nothing may change tomorrow when i have time lol
Now in the On Deck Circle . . .
I am currently working on two Airfix 1/48 Sea Kings which means that there isn't much room for anything else on my modelling bench.
On the left is Sea King HC.4 "King of the Junglies" (ZA298) that is being build OOB but with aftermarket wheels. On the right is Sea King HU.5 "Damien" (XV666) which is getting the aftermarket treatment in a big way. The "barn door" engine intake shield and CENTRISEP sand filters have not been glued to their respective fuselages yet:
A side view showing some of the aftermarket stuff, including gearbox, engines, driveshafts:
There is also an avionics bay and the cockpit has aftermarket seats, one of which can just be made out:

Evening all. It's been a while, and that's an understatement. Having battled with various hosting sites I have eventually ended up on image shack after a failed attempt a year ago !
Anyway, I'm not entirely sure this is the best place to post but I guess I'll get told off if I'm wrong. I just thought I'd put up some pics of a few of my builds and then I'll post things in the right place from now on.
Thanks for looking,
Dan
And what's actually on the bench...
