Re:To The Bitter End! Excellent Laura!

No problem Andy, but I might get a bit more painting done first. They're a little rough at the moment.

Here are a pair of King's own Scottish Borderers as they fought their retreat across Belgium in 1914. They're ICM figures with sculpted caps. I really like ICM figures and wish they would continue with the interesting subjects like their Franco-Prussians and these WW1 models. They'll be in a...

I like your style of figure painting. Great use of the old Italeri British tank crew.

Thanks Andy, there's some good stuff there.

Nice Chris, looks the part. There's is a really forlorn feeling in those Dieppe photos.

Mine arrived today, thanks TnT and Monroe Perdu! I'll take it wih me tonight to show off at the monthly meeting of the Vancouver Island Scale Modellers Club. Ted

Re:BOMBER COMMAND"PLAYER COUNT 7" Does anyone make a 1/144 Halifax? My Grandpa was a radio operator in the 426th Thunderbird squadron during the war. I'd love to do a model of my Grandpa's plane plane to go with the 1/144 Hercules I built for my uncle who flew those when he was in the forces...

Wow Chris, you're almost done and I'm still collecting bits for my build. The scratchbuilding on the interior looks great.

Looking great Brad. Never thought of adding casting blemishes like that. The figure sculpt is a beauty.

Thanks Rudi, that's an amazing resource. Those 1/48 French and Indian War figures are extremely nice for the small scale. I bought two of his 1/32 Napoleonic caricatures and was really impressed by the detail and low price. Ted

Wow, that is a nice sculpt. What product line will sell them? The painting is pretty excellent too.

I love it. It is great to see out-of-the-box builds by skilled modellers. That rabbit must be a rare kit.

Thanks for the heads-up Laura. I usually build representative models. For the flak tower I'm working on, should I do more research and build a replica of an actual Berlin building or is a representation enough. I'm totally happy :) with either decision and would like to honour the spirit of...

Here's my official start. The LCA comes with two nice metal bren guns. The figures will need a lot of work to match the reference photos.

Great assembly and finish on this model. The barrel camo on this huge beast reminds me of the joke about how to hide an elephant in a strawberry patch...paint his toenails red.

Very cool, can't wait to see what's in the box.

Thanks guys. I noticed that colour too after I painted it. Now that the guns are glued on I'll leave it yellow. Thanks for the info Johnny, much appreciated. A friend at work mentioned that there is another book entirely about flak towers during the war but I haven't seen it.

By the way, I noticed that the 1/35 4 x 20mm Flak 38 by Bronco is in stock at Lucky Model and it looks really good.
