Hi Bill, Yep, they are the Mini-art Tank riders. The driver will come from the Tamiya Quad/25 pndr kit but I'm not sure who will get to ride shotgun yet. Looking forward to watching your build also. John

I have been looking forward to building this one for a while now. I paid way to much for it as they were quite a rare kit around these parts, only to find Italeri have re-released it recently and I can pick a new one up for 1/2 what I paid for this one - such is life :) I intend to use...

Can I join in here with an Italeri 15cwt Chev truck and figures. I should scrape in by the end of August

My dumbest modelling moment - as a teenager I'd misplaced my Exacto knife and tried to use a knife used for skinning sheep, 8 inch blade, razor sharp. Cutting pieces off sprue and ran blade straight into thumb :woohoo: . Thumb nail stopped it - straight to town for a stitch up

Looking real good - I like that rusty weathering

Hey, it worked :) I've been wondering how they did that - Thanks guys B)

- Lock all children and animals out of the modelling room My wifes cat likes to pretend he's a German AA gun and gives any plastic on the bench "a rather hard time, old bean" I usually retaliate with an airsrike of my own :pilot

Re: Lesson 8 4 deuces plus Legend!! :notworthy:

Not too sure, but its only been 10 hours. I'll give it a couple of days to fade

Oh, sorry about the crap photo's. I will work on that - need better lighting

[/img] :sick: What am I doing ? [/img] :thumbsup I'm not sure that I had the wash thin enough coz it seemed that I wasn't picking much up with my dabbing. I think it will come out OK and at least I get to have a good go at drybrushing later on I'm really enjoying this as it's taking me...

Hi guys, finally starting some weathering. I knocked the chassis together and attacked it with a can of Tamiya spray paint and then gave all the parts left on the sprues a coat or two with Tamiya OD 2. Painted the tyres this morning and then started "the wash" under the tray and as I got a bit...

It's all good Bob. I had a old tin called U.S Olive Drab and when the 66 turned up it is exactly the same as I had suspected :laugh: You've done me a favour actually Bob, as when I order my tin of 155, I will make the order worthwile and get a kit I've had my eye on for a while (1/24 Revel...

As others have said Bob, I really appreciate you doing this and am looking forward to it. I have only ever built "as issued" due to my fear of ruining my work - but I'm keen as mustard to dirty this truck up :thumbsup The Humbrol paints have arrived, just the oils and artists turp's to go...

Hi Bob and fellow class mates, I will be watching this closely and will probably have a bash at a truck or armor piece in 1/35. To be honest weathering scares the cr*p out of me so the only way to beat that fear is tackle it head on. Question for Bob, I am restricted to enamel paints of which...

Re: "ROAD TO EL ALAMEIN" CAMPAIGN (6 PLAYERS) I'm sure I can find something to bring to the sandpit I'm thinking allied soft skin something :hmmm

Cheers Adam. I used Hunbrol 191 (Met) - brushpainted which came up pretty dull until I gave it a coat of Vectra which is just like Future/Clear

Thanks Moon Puppy. I'll try some Ultracast gun fairings on the next one + some Master .50 cal barrels. The wing seam will get a bit more attention (I've got 2 more 1/48 'stangs to do) BTW I enjoyed watching your 1/32 build B)

Hi there, just finished this bird. Constructive criticism welcome :) [/img] [/img] [/img] [/img][/img]
