Thanks John. It is actually a lot smaller than many of my other 1/32 and 1/35th scale models. I am loving the detail and the sizing is such that you can actually see the details. The trick is to do the paint where it all shows which is where I am struggling. It's getting there, and is a...

Looking really good Paddy. Excellent job on the headlight housings!

Actually the suspension is fairly well designed, fits well and is strong as it is. I didn't need any additional strength or alignment. On the front lever shock attachments to the support bar those needed to be cut loose and modded to allow a little side to side motion I did use a brass rod...

I have been working on this quite a bit. It's just that at this point there is a lot of little steps that have to be gone through to get things done. Building the parts that go in the chassis. Build the engine, and drive train. Detail the engine and drive train. Adding in missing parts (big...

Got the Squadron email last Wednesday and it had a Kubelwagen kit I had not seen before. I had seen photos of the vehicle before but the kit is new. Couldn't pass it up and then since the "regular" Kubel kits were about $15 apiece, I padded it up a little and got 3 kits.

Oh my Mark! You have gone over to the Dark Side now. Looks good.

If you start at 6 and it lasts 3 hours you will be done by 9 and have the whole rest of the day. You don't have to stay till it ends, but we would love to see you there Mark.

The accent lines are a good idea, but start with them cut way oversize. Then trim them just enough to set down over where they will go. Line them up and make fine little marks along where the edges will go. Trim down close to those marks and either with a fine file or fine sanding stick work...

Just getting into the CAD part of it for now Mark. It will be a bit before a printer hits my door. As it is the CAD part is going to be a bit of a project on it's own, so bear with me on this.

@Duke Maddog It would be 6AM your time Mark. Would really like to see you if you can work it out.

Yay! Like Paddy I have no "War Dept" to bug me or make my life mis er able. If I really wanted companionship, I would get the 4 legged kind as the one's of those in my past have been much more docile and genuine than the 2 legged kind ever were.

Well there was an OOPS, then there was PURDY! Not sure about 11 years old, as the small bottle Testors is still available at Hobby Lobby. One of their colors I use is the Zinc Chromate Yellow available in the small bottles only.

Hey! He is persistent! I would have just kept beating down the first kit and it wouldn't be done yet.

One of the books in question.

For now this is a place holder. As I delve into the "Learn Blender 4.4" book, I will start posting about what I am learning. Next on my list is the other book that James posted about. Then eventually a printer set up. Need to make a place for that first. (small FULL house) If you want to...

I blame James @jknaus :bigrin: (not really) The 3D stuff has been running worn paths in the back of my mind for about 20 years. Back in the day I played a game called Starfleet Command. Worked with another guy that was a programmer and we build a utility program to edit the ginormous data...

Those figures look really good John!

If so I will have to get my rest up during the week. I tend to burn the candles at both ends during the work week. o_O

Looking like a good solid fix Paddy.

Be aware that the posts in the bed have no support to keep them from twisting off at the base. Run another line or support from the top to the back of the bed and you will have it fully supported.
