Well here she is, ready for paint! The non slip is the AK interactive product, a personal fave. You can also see I had to add some styrene sheet after sanding off the barrel seam. The turret basket is the Legend item for The Meng kit. Took some grinding with a Dremel, but as you can see it fits...

OK so here is my Academy Magach 6B Gal Batash I’ve been working on. QUESTION: is the non-slip only on the areas shown? Or is it also on the fenders and storage boxes on the hull? Note I still have a lot to install, including the front glacis armor, but it’s coming along quite well!

Well only got a few hours in today but hafta say she ain’t lookin too bad. Note some parts are just press fit and that las pic shows how much material is going to have to be removed to get the basket to fit

Ok so FINALLY able to get some bench time today!!! Hey, it it just Meir does the turret look like a Star Wars speeder?

Yep Bob, I think in 2024 I’m gonna have to build one of these!

Wow to say that is incredible work is an understatement, and a car is love to build. Neat work!

I used to work for a guy that 2K+ carrier launches on the gunfighter. Interestingly per him the F8 was used to develop the swing wings and the Phoenix missile for the F14, for which he was a test pilot in his later career Neat build!

I'm referring to the stripe that runs down the barrel, not the rings. Does this latest version of the Merkava carry that? Anyone know?

Well yesterday it was warm enough that I was able to FINALLY get paint on this! One thing I mg I’m learning is that if you build a Merkava, put the ball chain armor on LAST!!! More repair work to do but it came Out nice, that Hataka paint is great stuff! Easy to mix and lays down flat and easy

Pretty sure this is one of the boats from back then

I have to admit I too want to get in on this, but that’s not for another year at least! On the book cover is a Swift boat. Interestingly I’m the late 80’s there was a scuba dive company out of Panama City FL that had a fleet of five. They worked very well for scuba in the Gulf of Mexico. Two...

Amazon has a documentary out about the life of the 747, including many pilots design engineers and the like. Interestingly there is a whole bit at the end showing who still uses them

Wow neat! I may have to pick one up!

Wow Paddy that is just incredible work! At this rate I may have to try one of those wingy-thingies

Sad…..

Wow man that is just exceptional work! I keeps thinking I need to build me one of those flying thingies

Well here we are at only about 5 hours or so. Went ahead worked thru the drudgery of the wheels, and pretty much finished off the lower hull. This kit is admittedly showing it’s age, but my parts didn’t have too much warping, and no sink marks (so far). This kit has the belly armor and it kit...

So figured I’d start something new. As most know I have a bit of fascination with Middle Eastern/Israeli subjects. Got this at the Columbia SC AMPS show last year. Israel never throws anything away it seems, and this is one of the most up-dated & up-armored versions of the venerable M60. Yes, I...

NEAT. I have been too slowly accumulating all the stuff to build a super detailed version of this kit
